STOKE-ON-TRENT, England (Interstat) — Port Vale and Barnsley opened their League One campaigns with a 0-0 draw Tuesday at Vale Park.

The match failed to produce a goal despite a pregame projection favoring the hosts. Interstat’s simulator had forecast a 1-1 result, and its ELO system gave Port Vale a 60.2% probability to win. The defensive stalemate left both clubs with an identical record to start the season: 0 wins, 0 losses, 1 draw across all competitions.

Barnsley’s Cameron Humphreys received the first yellow card in the 20th minute. Port Vale’s Joshua Earl was also booked in the 74th minute of a match with few clear chances. The result gives each team one point in the league table.
