Barnsley prepare to entertain Peterborough United at Oakwell on Tuesday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 11 games played, Tykes have recorded 5 wins, and Peterborough have come away with 4 victories.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Oakwell was less than a year ago, in April 2003, with Peterborough inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Tykes in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides
Barnsley losing only 1 of the last six, but drawing 4 of them. The goals for column just outweighs the goals against over this period, 6 to 4.
The away form of Peterborough is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the Posh have hit 4 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Barnsley's 48 points from 33 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position. Peterborough are stuck down in the relegation zone of Nationwide League Division Two with a return of just 30 points from their 33 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
The current home form displayed by Barnsley is obviously none too clever, but, with the current standing of Peterborough, I firmly believe this match can only produce a victory for the Tykes. Home Win
