Team News
Andy Gray and Chris Dagnall are set to continue up front for The Reds as they go in search of their first home win in 2012, but there is an enforced change in midfield with Danny Drinkwater completing his move to Leicester today. Matty Done is the favourite to replace the former Manchester United loanee as winger Jim O’Brien only resumed light training from a groin injury this week and is not expected to feature in the side for another fortnight.
Likely Line-Up:
Luke Steele
Bobby Hassell
Stephen Foster
Jim McNulty
Jay McEveley
Miles Addison
David Perkins
Matty Done
Ricardo Vaz Te
Chris Dagnall

Interesting Stats
Barnsley are unbeaten at home against Millwall since 1994- a total of four matches.
The Lions have won just five of their 23 trips to Oakwell and only one of the last six.
Millwall put five past League Two strugglers Dagenham and Redbridge in the FA Cup on Tuesday but they have failed to find the back of the net in their three previous league games and, casting the hammering of the Daggers aside, have scored just once in their last eight matches.
But on the other hand Barnsley are without a clean sheet in their last nine outings- the longest such run in the Championship, conceding 18 goals in the process.
Millwall have lost their last three league matches but have not lost four on the bounce since September 2007.
A win for the Reds tomorrow would mean both sides will have 18 wins apeice in meetings between each other.
