Npower Championship Matchday Fifteen: Barnsley v Hull City

Match Preview Team News Barnsley have the same players available for tomorrow’s Yorkshire derby with Hull City as they did for the 2-1 home defeat to Bristol City at the weekend.  Bobby Hassell, Reuben Noble-Lazarus and Danny Haynes remain sidelined for this match and the weekend’s clash with Brighton but could be ready to return after the next international break. Matty Done and David Perkins are though both available after coming through unscathed on Saturday. Likely Line-Up: Luke Steele Jay McEveley Scott Wiseman Stephen Foster Jim McNulty Jacob Butterfield Nathan Doyle Jim O’Brien David Perkins/ Matty Done Daniel Drinkwater Andy Gray Head To Head Last Six Barnsley v Hull Results: 15/1/11 Hull 2-0 Barnsley (Championship) 30/10/10 Barnsley 1-1 Hull (Championship) 15/4/08 Barnsley 1-3 Hull (Championship) 22/10/07 Hull 3-0 Barnsley (Championship) 20/2/07 Barnsley 3-0 Hull (Championship) 8/8/06 Hull 2-3 Barnsley (Championship) Overall Record: Barnsley Wins: 37 Hull Wins: 37 Draws: 22 Barnsley Goals: 142 Hull Goals: 158 At Oakwell: Barnsley Wins: 22 Hull Wins: 14 Draws: 12 Barnsley Goals: 88 Hull Goals: 62 This Season Last six 2011-2012 results: Barnsley: 29/10/11 Barnsley 1–2 Bristol City (Championship) 22/10/11 Cardiff 5–3 Barnsley (Championship) 18/10/11 Barnsley 2–0 Burnley (Championship) 1510/11 Portsmouth 2–0 Barnsley (Championship) 1/10/11 Barnsley 2–0 Coventry (Championship) 27/9/11 Derby 1–1 Barnsley (Championship) W: 2 D: 1 L: 3 F: 9 A: 10 GD: -1 Points: 7 Hull: 29/10/11 Nottingham Forest 0-1 Hull (Championship) 22/10/11 Hull 3-2 Watford (Championship) 15/10/11 Brighton 0-0 Hull (Championship) 1/10/11 Hull 2-1 Cardiff (Championship) 27/9/11 Doncaster 1-1 Hull (Championship) 24/9/11 Bristol City 1-1 Hull (Championship) W: 3 D: 3 L: 0 F: 8 A: 5 GD: 3 Points: 12 Interesting Stats Tomorrow’s match could be difficult to predict as both sides have won 37 of the 96 meetings between the two clubs. The Reds though have won just one of the last four clashes at Oakwell and just two of the last eight overall. Defeat for Barnsley would be their third in a row- something that has not happened since March 2010. Victory for the Tigers tomorrow evening would be their third on the spin and they are unbeaten in their last nine Championship fixtures. Interestingly, Barnsley are yet to defeat a side in the top half, whilst Hull are yet to lose away to a team sitting in the bottom half. The Tigers are on an incredible run away from the KC Stadium, having lost just three of their last 26 away matches.
