Accrington are sitting around inside the top three in the division heading into the weekend’s matches. It’s a good return from them and they will fancy their chances against the struggling Barnet. Barnet are more concerned about staying out of the relegation zone than anything else, well that and wondering where the next win will come from as they haven’t taken one since early September. Accrington are good value of 19/20 on home soil for the win, with Barnet at 14/5.

Accrington
Barnet FCAccrington Form
Stanley have had a couple of wobbles recently, losing games against Luton and Stevenage in their last four games, but they are still winning alongside that, so they aren’t in bad shape. They have gone W4 D2 in their last six league games and posted a good 2-0 win at Crewe on the weekend. At home, Accrington have put up figures of W4 D1 L2 but haven’t scored more than one goal in any of their last four games on home soil. Each of their last three wins in the league have been with a clean sheet as well. Stanley haven’t conceded a goal in the first fifteen minutes of a game this season.
Barnet Form
Barnet are winless in their last nine league games now but they have gone D3 L1 in their last four so have been fighting a bit. Each of those three points came on home soil though, and the Bees are really taking a hit out on the road. They have lost their last three away games and only have a W1 D2 L4 record on their travels this term. They have been behind at the break in over half of their away games this season and have not one clean sheet away from home. They are scoring in games, but their defence isn’t backing them up.
Head to Head News
There were home wins traded between Accrington and Barnet last season and in the last six League Two meetings, Accrington have only lost one of them against the Bees in a W3 D2 L1 record. So they have a slight edge and they are unbeaten in their last three home games against them, winning two.
Top Betting Tips
Accrington are great value to collect three points in this one. The defence of Barnet is as flimsy as balsa wood at the moment and Stanley can pounce for a good win here, but it just may be worth backing both teams to score for 8/11.
