Wycombe Wanderers vs Barnsley – Fighting at Opposite Ends of the Table
On Wednesday, Barnsley travel south to face Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park.
The home team have only scored once in the five most recent games, against a not very solid Preston North End. The visitors have conceded 4 goals in the five most recent games.
I do believe that the odds for Wycombe Wanderers scoring few goals are a bit too high.
