Game Analysis

  • This is priced as a comfortable favourite. Barnsley is the shortest price on a book of 3.40 / 3.90 / 1.85 (1 / X / 2), an implied 49.5%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 27.0% / 23.5% / 49.5% on an overround of 9.1%.

  • In the league table Fleetwood sit 4th on 0 points (0W 0D 1L) with Barnsley 3rd on 0 points (0W 0D 1L).

  • Fleetwood read L-L-L-L-D-W across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 1D 4L) — poor.

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

  • Our last-six model flags 1 qualifying strike here. Reading Fleetwood first, then Barnsley, out of their last six: BEST-WORST (1 wins against 1 defeats).

  • Fleetwood lean hardest on Jay Lynch (9.5), Ched Evans (9.5), Shaun Rooney (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.

  • 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 1.85 is the side the market is with, and nothing in the data above argues against it.
