Game Analysis

  • This is priced as a comfortable favourite. Leicester is the shortest price on a book of 3.3 / 3.75 / 1.96 (1 / X / 2), an implied 47.2%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 28.1% / 24.7% / 47.2% on an overround of 8.0%.

  • In the league table Barnsley sit 18th on 7 points (2W 1D 3L) with Leicester 13th on 8 points (2W 2D 2L).

  • Barnsley read L-L-W-W-D-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (2W 1D 3L) — more bad than good.

  • Leicester read W-L-W-D-L-D across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (2W 2D 2L) — patchy.

  • Head to head the record reads 2-2-2 — Barnsley wins, draws, then Leicester wins. Their last meeting finished Barnsley - Leicester: 0-3.

  • Barnsley lean hardest on Cameron McGeehan (9.5), Sam Gale (9.5), Reyes Cleary (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • The read: Leicester at 1.96 is the side the market is with, and nothing in the data above argues against it.
