Barnsley vs Bolton Preview

Barnsley have made an excellent start to their league campaign, winning both of their opening matches. The hosts edged Burton Albion 3-2 in their latest outing, marking the third consecutive game in which they scored at least three goals. They now aim to make it three wins from three when they host Bolton Wanderers this weekend.

However, their recent home form has been inconsistent, with just two wins, two draws, and three defeats in their last seven league games at Oakwell.

Bolton Wanderers picked up their first league victory of the season last weekend, beating Plymouth 2-0. They will be eager to replicate that performance, but their away form is a concern, they are winless in their last four league trips (1 draw, 3 losses).

Adding to the challenge, Bolton’s last victory over Barnsley came in May 2024 and is their only win in the last nine meetings between the two sides.

Who Will Win the Match Between Barnsley and Bolton?

We tip Barnsley to win because they have been convincing in their opening league matches, taking maximum points, while Bolton have looked shaky and inconsistent. Barnsley are also unbeaten in their last three head-to-head meetings against Bolton.

Which Players Could Score?

We expect Davis Keillor-Dunn to score anytime because the Barnsley forward has found the net in both of the club’s opening league matches. His form makes him a strong candidate to influence the outcome once again.

Barnsley vs Bolton Prediction

Barnsley have started strongly with two wins from two league matches, scoring at least three goals in each of their first three league games. They’ll aim to extend their perfect start against Bolton, though their home league record is mixed with just two wins in their last seven outings. Bolton, on the other hand, earned their first league win of the season with a 2-0 victory over Plymouth but remain winless in four straight away league games.

Barnsley look favourites given their strong form and unbeaten run in the last three head-to-head meetings, while Bolton’s away struggles and poor record against the hosts add to the challenge. Davis Keillor-Dunn, who scored in both of Barnsley’s opening league matches, is a strong candidate to get on the scoresheet again.
