Prediction: 2-0
Shrewsbury
Following a 1-1 draw with Peterborough, Barnsley will look to return to winning ways in the League One when they face Shrewsbury Town on Saturday afternoon. The Tykes have been having their ups and downs of late, beating Bolton, losing to Leyton, while sharing the spoils with Peterborough. Fabio Jalo limped off with injury in the midweek draw, with Max Waters likely to replace him in the standings.
Anyhow, home win should be considered as they play host to the rock-bottom side. Shrews, on the other hand, failed to secure the League One survival and given their poor form in April, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. Leo Castledine remains in the recovery room, while trio Gape – Oliver – Shipley is unlikely to be risked. It has to be noted that Barnsley defeated Shrewsbury 2-0 in the first half of the season.
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.
