We’re of the view that Northampton Town might need a bit of good fortune to put one past this Barnsley team who we think might score at least once to gain the upper hand.
Therefore, we predict a highly competitive game with a 0-1 advantage for Barnsley when the full-time whistle blows.
There should be little in it.
