Barnsley have not yet faced Middlesbrough at the Riverside as it was opened in August 1995 when Middlesbrough were in the Premier League after promotion the previous season. The Tykes and Boro then avoided each other for 14 years through promotions and relegations.
They met twice in Middlesbrough`s promotion season of 94/95, both matches ending in 1-1 draws and Barnsley won the next meeting at Oakwell in December 2009 with goals from Stephen Foster and Hugo Colace.
