What to expect

We expect about 1.2 goals from Wigan and 1.3 from Barnsley, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.5 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Wigan or Draw. This covers Wigan or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 66 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.42, which works out at about 70 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓Wigan have won two of their last five.
✓Barnsley have not won any of their last five.
✓Five of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in four of the last five meetings.
