Barnet’s long, disappointing and frustrating winless streak continued over the weekend with yet another defeat. They are a long, long way from safety now and are odds-on to be playing in the National League next season.

Notts CountyBarnet Form
They lost out at Mansfield last weekend and back at the Hive Stadium, they are D1 L2 in their last three there. They have only won three home games all season long and two of those were inside their first three home games of the season. The last time that Barnet kept a clean sheet was 18 league matches ago back at the start of October. So they are likely to concede here and they have scored only the twelve home goals all season which is well under a goal per game. Just 36% of their home games have made it over 2.5 goals and that may, unfortunately, end up leading to a defeat to nil for them.
Notts County Form
County had a miserable night out at Swansea on Tuesday night in their FA Cup fourth-round replay, shipping eight goals in a bit of a horror show. They have more important things to deal with back in League Two though as they are in the hunt for promotion. They landed a good 4-1 home win over Crewe last weekend to snap a three-match winless streak that they were on and at least with their FA Cup run ended, they can focus fully on their league campaign. Notts County are winless in their last two away from home (D1 L1) and they have taken just the one win in their last nine road games. So it hasn’t been overly convincing from them at all but they have to have a decent chance here facing up against the bottom side in the league. County are averaging 1.4 goals per game away from home which should just about see them over the line, if by nothing more than one goal margin. County have conceded in each of their last nine road games.
Head to Head News
The Magpies collected a home win over Barnet earlier in the season and that is back to back league wins that they have taken in the division over the Bees. However, Barnet have won their last three League Two home games against Notts County, scoring three goals exactly in their last two. How they would love to get that kind of form going again. Four of the last five meetings have made it above the 2.5 goal line.

Top Betting Tip Barnet v Notts County
Barnet just aren’t worth looking at in their home game, despite a nice bit of home form going against the Magpies in the head. Notts County haven’t delivered on consistency recently, but they are much better side than the Bees and should collect three points.
