Some Barnsley FC related stories as the season gets back in full swing following the international break.

Barnsley are preparing for their first home league game in almost a month when they welcome Cambridge United to Oakwell on Saturday from 3pm.

The Reds are 19th in League One, outside the relegation zone on goal difference, having taken only one point from their last four league games with three goals scored and 12 conceded.

Newly-promoted Cambridge are fifth with 16 points, double Barnsley’s tally, and unbeaten in seven in all competitions.

It is the first of three games across a week with trips to Luton and Reading to follow.

REDS OUT OF TROPHY

BARNSLEY are out of EFL Trophy with one game to play.

Oldham Athletic’s win over Leeds United under 21s on Tuesday means the Latics are top with six points while Leeds and Fleetwood Town have three.

Leeds and Fleetwood face each other in their final game so Barnsley, who have no points, cannot catch them both and finish in one of the two places to qualify for the knock-out stages.

The Reds are due to host Oldham on November 10, having lost 4-1 at Fleetwood last week and 4-3 at home to Leeds a fortnight earlier.

AWAY WIN FOR U18S

MIXED WEEK FOR BARNSLEY LOANEES
