Barrow at 37 to win feels tight given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Club Friendly Games this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re overperforming — stats nerds would avoid.
Bolton Wanderers’s 1.16 odds smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The smart money’ll likely target the Draw 5.85 — these derbies often follow scripts, and occasion can stifle attacking flow.
