Match Preview | Barnsley v Rovers

Rovers travel to Oakwell for their Sky Bet League One fixture against Barnsley, on Saturday 13th January.

The Gas look to build on a great performance at Carrow Road last weekend, as they face an in-form Barnsley side who sit 6th in the table and are unbeaten in their previous six league outings.

Rovers hosted Barnsley at the Mem for their first game of the League One season, where Barnsley went ahead through Nicky Cadden in the 7th-minute. After a back-and-forth game, Rovers broke on the counter during the 81st-minute, when Scott Sinclair was able to slot home the equaliser, with the game finishing 1-1.
