Barnsley vs Oxford Lineups and Other News

Barnsley

Barnsley drew 0-0 vs Lincoln on Tuesday. Dominated the game but failed to score and this was why more points were dropped. Despite remaining excellent at home too many recent mistakes were made on the road and the chances of a top 2 finish are over. At least the playoff position is guaranteed so not under too much pressure.

The squad is a bit stretched for this game. Starting midfielder Cadden misses the match suspended. Also, 4 others are out injured and the useful defender Cotter is considered a doubt. Despite all that, Barnsley have a large squad and they should be able to select a strong lineup.

Oxford

The U’s extended their winless run to 16 with a 1-1 home draw vs Portsmouth. The point was the least Oxford deserved though as they gave it their all on Tuesday night in search of this elusive win. The pressure on the squad is huge right now as they sit only 1 point above the relegation zone and haven’t been able to taste victory for months.

On top of putting a huge effort in midweek Oxford have other issues regarding their lineup too. Currently, 6 players are missing injured. Among them, regular starters when fit Negru (defender), Gorrin (inner midfielder) and Baldock (striker). This leaves every area of the pitch weakened and the U’s have been feeling that in their matches for some time now.
