Our prediction for this Championship match:
Rotherham United and Barnsley square off against each other at Aesseal New York Stadium. The Millers were not in action on Boxing Day, meaning that tired legs should not be a problem for them in the midweek clash. However, several players could miss the Barnsley game following the coronavirus outbreak. Rotherham produce much better displays at home than on the travels, but they face a difficult task in Tuesday’s clash against the in-form Tykes.
Barnsley recorded four wins in the previous five league fixtures, meaning that they are high on spirits ahead of the trip to South Yorkshire. Even though Valerien Ismael is likely to make changes to the starting XI that recorded a hard-fought 2-1 win over Huddersfield on Boxing Day, away win should be considered. The likes of Herbie Kane and Victor Adeboyejo are likely to replace Matty James and Dominik Frieser in the starting XI.

Born in Harlow, England on September 28, 1992, Adam Thompson is a defender who plays for Bury in League One. Thompson started his youth career at Watford and after making 14 appearances for the Hornets at senior level, he moved to Southend United, signing a permanent deal with the club in January, 2014.
It has to be noted that he played for the likes of Brentford, Wycombe Wanderers and Barnet on loan as well before joining the Shakers. Adam Thompson has a short loan spell at Bradford City in the 2017/2018 season, but he made no more than nine appearances for the Bantams. Despite being born in England, Adam Thompson decided to represent Northern Ireland in international matches.
He made his debut with the Northern Ireland national team on February 9, 2011, coming from the bench in a 3-0 loss to Scotland. His main position is centre-back, but he is capable of producing fine showings at right-back as well.
Highlighted Team (Barnsley):

Barnsley are an English club nicknamed the Tykes. The club was founded in 1887 and it has to be noted that they spend more seasons in the Championship than any other club in the history. The Tykes played in the Sheffield and District League from 1890, but in 1895 they were part of the Midland League. Barnsley play their home games at Oakwell, the stadium that was built in 1887.
The capacity of the stadium is 23,009 and it was opened back in 1888, just one year after the club’s foundation. The Tykes made it to the FA Cup final in 1910, but Newcastle United proved to be a big catch for the Oakwell outfit in the title game.
Nonetheless, Barnsley won the FA cup trophy in 1912 and that is considered the club’s biggest success. Barnsley defeated West Bromwich Albion in the two-legged tie (0-0, 1-0) to clinch the prestigious trophy for the first and only time in their history.
