Bolton
Bolton will be aiming to make amends for an unlucky loss to Rotherham United when they face Barnsley in the League One round 42. The Trotters failed to turn their dominance into goals against the Millers and it has to be noted that they had 36 goal attempts in the midweek defeat. Bolton, though, are still in the playoffs race and they are seen as favourites to win Saturday’s encounter. All Victor Adeboyejo, William Forrester, and Eoin Toal remain in the recovery room, while fit-again midfielder Kyle Dempsey is pushing for a start.
The Tykes, on the other hand, are sitting in the middle of the table with little to play for in the season finale. As Barnsley failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Exeter (1-2) and Birmingham City (2-6), we are tempted to place our bets on the playoffs-chasing visitors. Defender Mael de Gevigney misses out through suspension for the home side.
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.
