On January 29, the postponed match of the 29th round of the English Championship 2021/22 between Barnsley vs Bournemouth will take place. “Bookmaker Ratings” believes that the underdog can score points.
Barnsley is an amazing team. In the 2019/20 season, they almost flew out. But, the very next year, they played in the playoffs of the Championship, and this time they took the 24th place with 14 goals. A chance for salvation, was weak! Even Derby County, who were fined 12 points at the beginning of the tournament, outride them. In the last match, the team lost 0-3 to Nottingham Forest. The latest win was on November 3. Overall, Barnsley won twice this season.
Bournemouth lost two matches in a row, which dropped the team to third place. Moreover, a home loss to Hull 0:1 was completely unnecessary. They managed not to miss out only twice out of ten. This speaks of their instability. Yet, unlike Fulham, they do not score six goals in three games in a row.
Barnsley have lost more than one goal in seven of the last ten games. The handicap (+1.5) passed in the same number of games. The “both teams to score” bet played six times, and the total over 2.5 was played only in half of the matches. In seven games, the opponent scored first.
The Cherries managed to win only three of ten games, and the total under 2.5 was played six times. True, the opponents also managed to break through an individual total of 1.5 goals in just three matches. The last three personal games ended in the bookmakers’ top.
The guests are also not in the best condition now, so the hosts can at least not lose much. For example, a handicap (+1) is worth considering. Although this season at Vitality, Bournemouth left no chance for Barnsley (3:0). The hosts have recently played against Huddersfield and West Brom with a draw; where both fight for the play-offs. So pay attention to the bet against the favorite is worth it.
