Barnsley vs Luton Match Preview
Barnsley went down 2-0 in midweek to Birmingham to stretch their winless run to three in the league and four in all competitions. The Yorkshire outfit can have few complaints about the result as they were second-best throughout.
At Oakwell, the Tykes have taken four points from the two league fixtures that they have played here this season. This continues a brilliant run of not having tasted defeat in front of their own fans in the league since way back in March 2018.
Luton have struggled since their return to the Championship and their 1-0 loss at Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday evening was their third straight defeat. They have taken just one point from their first four which was an opening day 3-3 draw with Middlesbrough.
Away from Kenilworth Road, the Hatters have played twice losing to both Sheffield Wednesday and Cardiff. If you throw in results at the end of the League One season it is four defeats from the last five on the road for the Berkshire outfit.
It is hard to see past the home team here who took four points from the meetings between these sides last season and have started the season stronger. The draw is certainly a risk as these sides know each other well but backing a Barnsley victory appeals at the odds. It also makes sense to take the Tykes to come out on top and under 3.5 goals given how neither side are prolific at the moment and the familiarity between the pair.
