Under 2.5 goals at Port Vale vs Barnsley 21/20 for Tuesday’s EFL Trophy matchup

Posted November 23rd, 2022 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: EFL Trophy

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 21/20 @ 888sport

Two sides who will be looking to extend on their EFL Trophy adventure on Wednesday night, Port Vale will host Barnsley in an all-League One showdown.

Starting with the hosts, managing to make a welcomed return to winning ways over the weekend, Port Vale will be looking to build off of that display here. In their 19 League One matchups so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, five draws and seven defeats, scoring 21 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 26, they currently find themselves sat 10th in the standings and holding a one-point buffer from dropping out of the top-half. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 1-0 victory at home against Charlton, that result brought an end to Port Vale’s three-match winless run. However, it should be highlighted, Wednesday’s hosts have seen three of their last five home fixtures across all formats finish with under 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, continuing on what has been an eye-catching purple patch over the past few weeks, Barnsley will be looking to lay down another marker here. In their 18 League One matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, three draws and six defeats, scoring 23 and conceding 15 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 30, they currently find themselves sat sixth in the standings and holding a one-point buffer from dropping out of the play-off places. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up an impressive victory at home against MK Dons, Barnsley have won each of their last four outings. However, it should be highlighted, with Wednesday’s guests seeing three of their last four contests on the road finish with under 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
