Prediction: 2-2
Barnet
High-flying Oldham will be aiming to extend their winning run to four games when they take on Barnet in the League Two round 10. The Bantams have been impressive at the back of late and we predict that they will continue relying on their rock-solid defence in upcoming fixtures. Republic of Ireland forward Joe Quigley is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in a 3-0 win over Cheltenham, while fellow attacker Jack Stevens remains in the treatment room.
The Bees, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Crewe (2-1) and Grimsby (3-0). Considering that Barnet have improved offensively as well, we are tempted to place our bets on over 2.5 goals. Dean Brennan has a luxury to field the best possible side against Oldham. In their last meeting in a competitive match, Barnet defeated Oldham 3-0 and yet another high-scoring affair is on the cards.
Highlighted Team (Oldham):
Based in Oldham, Greater Manchester, Oldham Athletic are a professional football club that compete in League Two. The Latics play their home matches at Boundary Park, the venue with the capacity of 13,512 spectators. Oldham Athletic are well known for their blue and white home kit, with the owl being the symbol of the club.
The Latics did remarkably well to make it to the League Cup final in 1990, but Nottingham Forest proved to be a big catch for Joe Royle’s troops in the title game. Oldham made it to the FA Cup semis on three occasions (1912/13, 1989/90, 1993/94), and in 1979 they advanced to the Anglo-Scottish Cup final. The Latics registered their biggest league triumph on December 26, 1962, with the team crushing Southport 11-0 in Division 4.
Speaking of the club’s heaviest defeat, Oldham Athletic were hammered by Tranmere Rovers 14-3 at Prenton Park on December 26, 1935. Bolton, Stockport, and Blackburn are the club’s traditional rivals, but nowadays, Huddersfield Town are seen as the Latics’ fiercest rivals.
