by Ian John in League One Predictions
Bolton host Barnsley in the second leg of their League One playoff semi-final on Monday. Ian Evatt’s team have a big advantage after their 3-1 win at Oakwell in the first leg. Dion Charles scored his 17th and 18th League One goals of the season to put Bolton 2-0 up, before Barnsley’s Sam Cosgrave halved the deficit in the 75th minute. However a late Randell Williams strike in the fourth minute of injury time restored Bolton’s two goal advantage. With the best home record in League One and just three defeats in 23 games this season at the Toughsheet Community Stadium, the home fans will be confident of completing the job.
Barnsley’s hopes of reaching a second successive League One playoff final are slim, but not quite dead in the water just yet. Interim manager Martin Devaney will know his team have the third best away record in League One. Additionally, they have scored more goals on the road than any other team in the division. But they did lose their last four away league games, after losing just one in their previous 19. A two-goal victory would force extra time for Barnsley, so they are going to have to go on the offensive relatively early in this game to try and claw back the deficit. A Wembley date in late May awaits the winner with either Oxford United or Peterborough United to be their playoff final opponent for a place in the Championship next season.
