Game Analysis

  • A heavy favourite, with the price to match. Barnsley is the shortest price on a book of 1.27 / 5.87 / 8.04 (1 / X / 2), an implied 72.8%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 72.8% / 15.7% / 11.5% on an overround of 8.2%.

  • In the league table Barnsley sit 1st with Leeds United Academy 4th.

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

  • Leeds United Academy read L-L-L-L-L-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (0W 0D 6L) — a badly out of sorts side.

  • Our last-six model flags 2 qualifying strikes here. Reading Barnsley first, then Leeds United Academy, out of their last six: O 2.50 4 and 5, GG 4 and 5.

  • 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: Barnsley at 1.27 is short enough that the value, if there is any, sits on the handicap or in the goals market rather than the outright.
