Of course we should be favourites, but are Walsall really 8/1 shots? They are still unbeaten and are only below us on goal difference.
Short answer: No. Anyone who’s not a Barnsley fan should look at that and have a few pound on it just as a speculative bet.
I don't know much about Walsall, other than they're up there with us and unbeaten. Bookies are no mugs though, and will be aware of how much we're creating.
Their fans seem pretty confident that they can get a result, due to the fact that Dougall and Davies are missing. They are hoping it's not called off. Have to say, I still fancy us to beat them irrespective of who is selected to cover Kenny's absence. Don't forget our two new boys could well feature. https://upthesaddlers.com/t/barnsley-international-call-ups/1423
Betting aside, I’m a little concerned about the absence of some key players. The ‘B’ team has already come up well short against Blackpool. I expect the fringe players to get another run-out against Oldham tomorrow. If they struggle again I’ll start to worry.
