Match analysis
Barnsley and Stevenage are combining for just 2.2 goals a game this season, comfortably below the total Superior is backing Under 3.5 at 1.3 for their League One meeting on 5 September, priced at a 76 percent probability. The reverse fixture in April also settled under this line.
The two sides are combining for just 2.2 goals a game
Barnsley average 1.4 goals a game and Stevenage just 0.8, and three of Stevenage's last five have finished goalless or with a single goal shared between the sides. Barnsley's own home form has included two draws in their last five, and the reverse fixture in April finished 0-1, also under this line.
A repeat of Barnsley's 3-2 win would beat this total
The pick loses if this produces four goals or more, and Barnsley's 3-2 win earlier in their run already crossed it. Stevenage have also shared four goals in a 2-2 draw this season. If either side's finishing improves from its recent low base, this total could get away from Superior's number.
