Barnsley Preview – Can Tykes end nightmare?
Barnsley face a tough assignment in the shape of high-flying Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon even though they hold supposed home advantage at Oakwell as the hosts look to end their drought in the Championship.
The Tykes are without a win in their last 10 matches overall which includes seven defeats while the bigger picture paints a gloomy outlook for Barnsley as the hosts have managed to win just one of their last 24 games overall.
This poor record has contributed to Barnsley’s basement position in the second tier while at Oakwell, Barnsley have won just one of their last 11 matches on home soil.
Bournemouth Preview – Can Cherries bounce back?
Recent back-to-back defeats against Luton Town and Hull City have resulted in Bournemouth dropping out of the automatic promotion places into 3rd spot but although they hit the road for this game, Bournemouth may well fancy their chances of getting a result here.
The Cherries have actually picked up just two wins out of their last 10 matches which came in the form of wins against QPR and Cardiff City but the south coast side have also suffered five defeats within this period as well.
The visitors have won just one of their last six away from home too but they hold a decent record against Barnsley, losing just one of the last eight meetings against The Tykes.
