Prediction: 1-1
Huddersfield
Barnsley play host to Huddersfield at their Oakwell in what is expected to be an interesting League One encounter. The Tykes aim to build on the EFL Cup win over Rotherham United, but they face a difficult task against a very solid Huddersfield side. Midfielder Adam Phillips is widely expected to return to the starting XI after sealing the victory as a substitute against Millers, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Terriers, on the other hand, are on a three-game winning run in all competitions, but with Barnsley being tough to beat at home, a close encounter is on the cards at Oakwell. A man to watch in the away team will be summer signing Alfie May, who returns to the starting XI after being rested in the EFL Cup win over Sunderland. All Chapman, Evans, and Miller remain in the treatment room.
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.
