Prediction: 1-0
Northampton
Barnsley will look to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Portsmouth and Blackpool when they take on Northampton in the last game of the season. The Tykes are desperate to book their spot in the playoffs and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Cobblers. Even though Barnsley suffered a dip in form, home win should be considered as all Blackpool, Oxford United, and Lincoln are breathing down their neck. Sam Cosgrove is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
Meanwhile, the visitors are stuck in the middle of the table with little to play for in Saturday’s clash. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team, we are tempted to put our money on the playoffs-chasing hosts this time out. Jon Brady is likely to stick to the 4-2-3-1 formation, with Louis Appere as a lone forward.
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.
