Stockport to Win
Barnet has won their last eight competitive fixtures, six National League and two FA Trophy outings. On the other hand, Barnet has been on hard times of late. They are winless in their last five outings, losing thrice and drawing the other two. Given the form of both sides, it looks difficult to put our money on anyone other than the Hatters.
Total Goals: Over 2.5
The Hive Stadium has been the mecca of high scoring matches this season. This is especially true for Barnet's recent outings where six of their last seven affairs have seen three or more goals. This fixture has followed a similar trajectory with four of their last five meetings finishing in this manner.
Both Teams to Score: Yes
The meetings at Hive Stadium have been spread over FA Cup, National League and League Two. Barnet has won twice with Stockport claiming bragging rights on three occasions. While the pendulum has swung in favour of both sides, entertainment has been everpresent. Both sides have scored on four of these occasions with the margin of victory being slim at one goal. We are backing the trend to continue as the Bees look to jolt their rivals title aspirations.
