Barnsley host Oldham in EFL Trophy

Barnsley will paly their final EFL Trophy match of the campaign when they host Oldham Athletic on Wednesday night at Oakwell.

 

The Reds are already out of the competition with a game to spare, meaning a very low crowd is expected for the game. 

 

Barnsley ended their long winless run with a 7-2 rout against Aldershot in the FA Cup and will visit Wigan Athletic in round two. 

 

Daniel Stendel is expected to rotate the side heavily against the Latics. 

 

Oldham currently sit top of Northern Group G with six points from two matches and have already guaranteed a place in the next round. 

 

They currently sit 18th in League Two and are coming into the game off the back of an FA Cup victory at home to Sheffield Wednesday. 

 

The Latics are managed by Micky Mellon who was sent off against Sheffield Wednesday after being involved in an altercation. 

 

Barnsley midfielder Vimal Yoganathan had a loan spell at Oldham in the second half of the 2024/25 season, a campaign which saw them promoted back to the EFL. 

 

The two sides have faced off 83 times, with Barnsley winning 30 and losing 31.
