Prediction: 1-1

Swansea

Saturday’s football match at Oakwell pits together Barnsley and Swansea City, the two top-table sides. Barnsley kicked off 2021 with a 1-0 loss to Norwich City, but they did well to beat Tranmere in the FA Cup last 64. The Tykes are eyeing their fifth consecutive win at home in all competitions, but, no doubt, they should be happy with one point from the Swansea City game. A man to watch in the home team will be Cauley Woodrow, who found the net in the FA Cup win over Tranmere.

The Swans, on the other hand, outplayed Watford in their last league match, with the team eliminating Stevenage in the FA Cup at the weekend. The Welsh outfit aim to retain their spot in top two, but seeing that Barnsley are tough to beat at home, share of spoils is on the cards. Andre Ayew, who was rested in the FA Cup clash, returns to the starting XI for the visitors.
