Barrow victory

Hartlepool’s return to the League Two will be met with expectations of just survival. Even though Barrow do have the same expectations, the opening day defeat against Stevenage has increased pressure on Mark Cooper and his men. However, home advantage will help them just as it did last season with the team finishing the campaign with two wins and a draw from the last three matches.

Total goals under 2.5

A strong feature of Barrow and Hartlepool United from the opening two competitive matches would be the lack of threat going forward. Barrow do not look the same going without Scott Quigley and it may take a while before the newcomers click. Hence, this match is a good pick for witnessing fewer goals.

Clean sheet for Barrow

The offensive presence of Barrow has definitely gone down following the departure of Scott Quigley. It was apparent in the first two matches of the season, but one positive for manager Mark Cooper will be his team’s defensive performances. Apart from Stevenage’s well-worked goal, Barrow have not been through scary situations at the back. Hartlepool have scored only one goal in the opening two competitive matches of the season.
