Barnsley vs Porth Vale Lineups & Team News
Barnsley
During the 2022/23 League One season, the Tykes came close to advancing to the next stage of English football. However, it wasn’t meant to be, as Sheffield Wednesday were the ones to soar after a heartbreaking 123rd-minute Josh Windass goal. It’s a massive blow for the Tykes that’ll surely give our Barnsley vs Port Vale predictions a fighting chance this week.
Predicted lineup – Isted (GK), Thomas, Andersen, Kitching, Williams, Phillips, Connell, Kane, Cadden, Tedic & Cole
Port Vale
We didn’t quite enjoy the best performances from the Valiants last year, so we hope to see something else in the 2023/24 campaign. During the 46 official League One games, Port Vale accumulated only 49 points. Surely, the fans are after something more impressive.
Predicted lineup – Stone (GK), Smith, Donnelly, Benning, Plant, Ojo, Conlon, Worrall, Massey, Wilson & Butterworth
Player to Watch: Daniel Butterworth
A key cog in these Barnsley vs Port Vale predictions is Daniel Butterworth’s presence on the pitch at Oakwell Stadium on the 5th of August. The 22-year-old up-and-coming finisher is trying to make a name for himself with the Valiants, and so far, coach Andy Crosby is giving him the opportunities to impress.
With three goals and three assists in the 2022/23 race, Daniel proved he can be trusted to lead Port Vale’s attack. The former Blackburn Rovers player is expected to be among the starters on Saturday.
