Barnsley prepare to entertain Bristol City at Oakwell on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Tykes are clearly on top, having won 21 and lost only 7 of the 37 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Oakwell was less than a year ago, in May 2004, with Bristol City inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Tykes in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides
Barnsley have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. Only 4 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 in the wrong end.
Bristol City's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The Robins's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.
Barnsley's 1 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position. Bristol City's 1 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Barnsley at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Tykes will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
