Barnsley entertain Millwall having come in to a bit of form under new boss David Flitcroft.

The reds could really do with three points tonight so let`s have the fans down at Oakwell to cheer the team on.

Come On You Reds

Barnsley Team News:

Barnsley will still be without Stephen Dawson and Jim McNulty.

New signing Jason Scotland will come in to the Barnsley squad but will have to settle for a place amongst the substitutes.

Bobby Hassell and Scott Wiseman face late fitness tests.

I expect the team to be:
GK Steele
CB Cranie
CB Hassell
CB Kennedy
RWB Stones
LWB Goldbourne
CM Perkins
CM Etuhu
CM Mellis
ST Dagnall
ST Harewood

Subs
Alnwick
Wiseman
Foster
O`Brien
Noble-Lazarus
Rose
Scotland


Player to watch: Perkins

His energy will definitely be needed in midfield with Dawson out injured.

Millwall Team News:

Millwall welcome back Shane Lowry after suspension. Scott Malone could return but Nathan Tyson will miss out with an ankle injury.

Rob Hulse could make his debut following a loan move from QPR.

Player to watch: Hulse

Will be looking to prove something after being shipped out by QPR.

Next Fixtures:Blackpool away on Saturday

The reds have sold out their allocation for this one. I get the feeling many aren`t going with the football as the first priority.
