Predicted Lineup:
Killip (GK), Williams, De Gevigney, McCart, Cotter, O’Keeffe, Cadden, Styles, Kane, McAtee & Cole
Fleetwood

Fleetwood’s form had been shaky all season and yet somehow they’ve found a way to perform on the road. So far 8 of the 11 points have been collected on the road.
There is hope that things will improve at the defensive end. After missing 10 games star centre-back Sarpong-Wiredu is back now. Also, Nsiala returns after a ban for this trip. This means that Fleetwood are practically at full strength, only fringe player Holgate remains injured.

Player to Watch: Devante Cole
Barnsley’s centre forward Devante Cole is having a stellar season. The aggressive forward already netted 10 goals in just 14 league appearances. He has scored 7 of those 10 goals in home matches and this is where Cole tends to play his best football. That’s why we think he is the player worth keeping a close eye on on Saturday afternoon.
