Barnsley have the prospect of another trip to Wembley, this time in the league cup but first we must overcome Derby County at home to secure that prize.
The winner of the reds or Derby will travel to play Tottenham in the third round of the cup with Tottenham playing all of their home games at Wembley this season.
Derby will no doubt be favourites to overturn the reds at Oakwell but there is a chance that Derby could look to rest players depending on when the fixture falls.
The reds however, I would expect would play a full strength side as Hecky tends to in every game in every competition, this is something I like and feel more teams should do it.
No date has been set for the third round encounter yet as we face Derby on Tuesday 19th September in the second round whilst the other third round ties will also be taking place on the same evening and the following day.
