Two teams vying for promotion from League One this season are the subjects of our next match prediction. Stockport County host Barnsley on Saturday with both teams in somewhat erratic form heading into this fixture. Will County bounce back to their best, or can the Tykes terrify the home side to land another big win?
Currently the league table shows Stockport lying in fourth position in the table after 16 games with 28 points scored. Dave Challinor's team had been top of the table a couple of weeks ago. Conor Hourihane's Barnsley lie ninth in the table with 24 points, but having only played 14 games, meaning they have two or more games in hand on most of their rivals.
Heading into this game, Stockport have had a bit of a struggle in the last couple of weeks. After beating Tranmere 3-1 in the FA Cup, they then lost 3-0 at home to Luton Town before they drew 1-1 with Wigan Athletic in the Football League Trophy (winning 6-5 on penalties). However last weekend was another struggle as they went down 3-0 away to Peterborough United.
In contrast, Barnsley have been in great form over the last few weeks. A 3-2 win over York City in the FA Cup at home was followed by a 2-1 win over Doncaster Rovers on the road. A 2-0 defeat at home to Lincoln City was a minor blip in the Football League Trophy before last weeks 5-0 home win over Luton Town.
