It has been seldom in recent games where Shrewsbury Town have shown defensive steel. In fact, Shrewsbury Town have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 6 goals along the way. Such a trend might not be sustained into this game, though.

For Barnsley, the goals were scored by Devante Cole (15') and Josh Martin (83').
The trend of at least one team drawing a blank in games featuring Barnsley has become evident recently. Examining their last six games shows that it has happened 5 times. In those clashes, their opponents have managed a goal aggregate of 6 while Barnsley have scored 6.
Heading into this fixture, Barnsley have not won away from home in their last 2 league matches. Prediction: Both teams to score.
