This Tuesday Wycombe Wanderers travel to Underhill to take on Barnet.



The Bees had a dreadful start to the season, picking up only one point from their first seven league games.

However, they have now hit form, winning 3 of their last 4 matches, the most recent being a fine 4-3 win away at Rotherham on Saturday. What’s more, The Bees won this game despite playing with 10 men for an hour.

Barnet sit in 19th position in the league, having amassed 10 points. On the scoring front, they have notched up 12 goals (5 at home) and conceded 23 (8 at home).

Top league scorers for Barnet are Albert Adomah and Cliff Akurang with 3 goals each.



Wycombe remain at the top of the table after Saturday’s 1-1 draw at home to Darlington.

They have collected 23 points, having won 6 games and drawn 5.

The Chairboys are yet to lose a league game, have scored 13 goals (5 away from home) and conceded only 5 ( 1 away from home).

Top scorers for The Blues are Scott McGleish and Mike Williamson with 3 goals each.

After falling well short of their usual standards on Saturday, Wycombe will be hoping to put in a better performance, in front of what is expected to be a large travelling support for this match.

Normally you would expect changes after Saturday’s display, but manager Peter Taylor’s options are limited, given the injuries and suspensions.

In late news : Wycombe have re-signed Simon Church on loan. He is available for Tomorrow’s game.


Prediction
Barnet 1 Wycombe 0

Too many good players unavailable for The Wanderers
