The League One match between Barnsley vs Bolton Wanderers will take place at Oakwell on Wednesday at 1:15 am IST.
Two teams aiming for promotion will play each other when Barnsley host Bolton Wanderers at Oakwell for a League One match on Tuesday. Barnsley is in fourth place with 66 points, while Bolton is in third place with three points more.
Barnsley goes into the crucial midweek game in great form, winning their third consecutive match against Wycombe Wanderers. They had to come from behind twice, with goals from Sam Cosgrove, Donovan Pines, Corey O’Keeffe, and Conor Grant securing a 4-2 win. They’ve now gone six games without losing and are just three points behind Derby County in second place. Returning to Oakwell, where they’ve won four of their last five league games, they’re feeling confident. Although they drew with Bolton recently, they won 1-0 against them in their last home match in May last year.
Bolton has the chance to win their second consecutive game after defeating Cambridge United. George Thomason scored first, followed by Aaron Collins, securing a 2-0 victory and extending their unbeaten home run to seven matches. They’re currently just outside the top two spots, but a point in Tuesday’s game could move them up. However, Bolton hasn’t been consistent when playing away, with four wins, two draws, and four losses in their last 10 away matches. Despite this, they had a good record against Barnsley away before losing last season. They’ll take confidence from their past performances and aim to continue their good form in the upcoming match.
Barnsley probable starting lineup: Roberts, De Gevigney, Pines, Earl, Williams, Kane, Connell, Phillips, O’Keefe, Cole, Cosgrove
Bolton Wanderers probable starting lineup: Coleman, Jones, Santos, Toal, Dacres-Cogley, Thomason, Maghoma, Ogbeta, Collins, Adeboyejo
