Heading into this contest, Bolton Wanderers have not been beaten by Barnsley in away games against them for the last 8 league games. It doesn't get much better than that.

⚡ Prediction
We’re of the opinion that Bolton Wanderers and Barnsley should be able to score more than one goal each in what is shaping up to be a fairly even contest.
It will be interesting to see how this one goes, with a good chance of a draw and also of goals in the match. That’s why we have predicted a very even contest with a 2-2 draw when the referee blows the final whistle.
