Barnsley vs Peterborough Lineups and Other News

Barnsley

Barnsley have a guaranteed playoff spot already and they are relaxed in the last few rounds of the regular season. Not just that but the Tykes can’t move, up or down, from the 4th position so they have nothing much to play for in this final game. Last weekend came from 1-4 down to rescue a thrilling 4-4 draw on their visit to MK Dons.

Barnsley are likely to rotate and rest many of the regulars in this match. They are locked in 4th place and the manager doesn’t want any of his key players to get injured or suspended before the playoffs begin. Barnsley do have 5 sidelined players too. This makes it even more likely to see at least 2-3 Academy graduates given their senior debuts.

Peterborough

Peterborough were held to a frustrating home draw last weekend and they come into the last day of the season sitting 2 points outside the playoffs. This means that only a win could possibly help to extend Posh’s season so one final push from the players can be expected.

Peterborough will be without their 2 main full-backs in this match. Both Thompson and Ogbetha are out injured. There is good cover for both though and there are no other injury issues so Posh still have a very strong squad ready to step on the pitch.
