Prediction: 1-0
Rotherham
Barnsley and Rotherham face each other at Oakwell in the opening match of the League One round 15. The Tykes aim to build on the FA Cup win over Port Vale and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Sam Cosgrove is a major doubt and the forward will be assessed ahead of the kick-off, while Adam Phillips is pushing for a start after sealing the victory against the Valiants.
The Millers, meanwhile, aim to recover from the FA Cup loss to Cheltenham Town. As Rotherham United suffered a dip in form, we predict that Barnsley are going to pick up all three points from the match. In their last encounter at Oakwell Barnsley defeated Rotherham United 1-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Speaking of the away team, Jonson Clarke-Harris faces race against the clock to be fit for Friday's encounter.
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.
