Derby County - Barnsley betting tips and odds

Derby County should not have bigger problems running away with three points in this match if they stick to their game plan. However, Barnsley can be a tough nut to crack and the home side need to be on top of their game.

It’s highly unlikely that Barnsley will manage to get some points this round. Derby County are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

The top online bookmakers didn’t give The Rams much of a shot at winning their previous away match against Cardiff City – and they were right. Still, they maintained an even score until the second half and only lost by a 1-goal difference (1:0). This wasn’t a terrible performance considering the 4.33 odds on an away win at kick-off.

The Tykes are bursting with confidence after their latest Championship home victory. Despite being tagged clear underdogs in the matchup against Middlesbrough, they were ahead at both half time and the final whistle.

The last 3 times we saw Derby County play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

We already saw these two teams clash this season, and Barnsley carried off a narrow home win. The roles are reversed this time, however, and the betting odds are marking Derby County as somewhat more likely to win.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

At the odds of 2.20, the match will likely end in a Home Win. The probability of success is the most important factor here, and all signs are pointing towards a triumph for Derby County.
