Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner here, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Barnsley and Stevenage will find the net twice at least between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Conor Hourihane or Alex Revell has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.36 equating to roughly a 75% probability.
