QPR U21 vs Barnsley U21 tips and predictions

Things won't be straightforward for QPR U21

There's not much between QPR U21 and Barnsley U21 in the Professional Development League. The hosts are in second place with 49 points, compared to their opponents who are in fourth place on 48 points.

Any result could happen here and the feeling is they'll battle to a draw. You can expect this to be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Solid on their own soil QPR U21 have conceded at an average of just 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches. Meanwhile Barnsley U21 have only conceded 0.8 goals per game on average in their last 5 away matches.

The sportsbooks are expecting goals at both ends of the park as they can both be dangerous in possession. But with the odds-against price on BTTS No that looks like a good way to extract some value on this occasion.

QPR U21 have drawn 4 of their last 10 matches on their own soil and Barnsley U21 have drawn 2 of their last 5 matches on the road. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds. The draw is the play after what will probably be a low-scoring affair.
