📊 Form Guide

Barnsley
LLWWWL
Barnsley will be looking for an improved result here following the 1-0 League One defeat in their last game at the hands of Charlton Athletic.
Macaulay Gillesphey (12') was the scorer for Charlton Athletic.
In their past 6 games, Darrell Clarke's Barnsley have hit the target a combined total of 9 times - an average number of goals per match equal to 1.5.
Blackpool
DDDWLD
In their previous game, Blackpool drew 0-0 in the League One match with Peterborough United.
Blackpool have been dangerous up front in their most recent fixtures, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager Steve Bruce will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Blackpool have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 5 of those same outings.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Blackpool:
- are undefeated by Barnsley when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 matches in the league.
- are without an away win for the past 2 league games.
🤜🤛 Head to head
A look at their past head-to-head clashes going back to 25/09/2021 shows us that Barnsley have won 1 of them & Blackpool 5, with the number of drawn matches standing at 0.
A total of 15 goals were produced between them in this period, with 5 from The Tykes and 10 created by The Seasiders. That is an average goals per game value of 2.5.
The previous league match featuring the two was League One match day 12 on 19/10/2024 which finished with the scoreline of Blackpool 1-2 Barnsley.
The referee was Paul Howard.
ℹ️ Team News: Barnsley
Marc Roberts (unknown injury), Josh Earl (unknown injury) and Dexter Lembikisa (unknown injury) are unavailable for Barnsley boss Darrell Clarke.
📰 Team News: Blackpool
Thanks to a largely available group, there is only the lone fitness issue for the Blackpool gaffer Steve Bruce to contend with. Andy Lyons (Cruciate ligament injury) misses out for this game.
🔮 Prediction
We’ve got the feeling that Blackpool will need to apply a lot of pressure to put one past this Barnsley lineup who we think should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.
That’s why we have predicted a narrow 1-0 winning margin for Barnsley when the referee blows for full-time.
Little in this one.
