Peterborough United travel to Oakwell to face Barnsley (August 15, 7:45pm).

Posh have happy memories of Oakwell having won 2-0 on the closing day of last season to secure a play-off place.

In fact, Posh have won 2-0 on their last two visits to this part of Yorkshire.

Can they make it three in a row both at Oakwell and in the league this season?

LIVE: Barnsley vs Posh

Key Events

  • 7:45pm kick-off
  • Posh looking for three wins from three
  • Ephron Mason-Clark has a chance of making this one
  • Posh have won 2-0 on both of their last two matches at Barnsley

Cotter goes over easily on the left corner of the box. Ricky was there but hardly affected him. Dangerous area

Hits Ricky right in the middrift

Now Barnsley wake up.

Weird how they just stopped at 1-0.

So much space for Cadden on the left to shoot, left alone by Kioso. Shoots across Bilokapic but saved well.

Lopata wins the header from the corner at the backpost but heads over.

JCH has arrived for the season. Collins again the architect, finds Poku on hte right, bursts into the box and plays a ball right across the line and JCH is there to simply tap it in.

Great first-time finish.

Collins picked out Kioso on the right with a lovely cross-feild ball. He cuts it back on the edge of the box and it’s a first time slot into the new again.

71 mins 1-0 Barnsley

Burrows is having a hard time dealing with Cotter, as he has all game.

Fires a ball across goal, Poku finally clears it at the third attempt.

Unsurpirising changes for Barnsley as Posh take control.

Both strikers Cole and Watters off.

Andy Dallas and Oli Shaw on

67 mins 1-0 Barnsley

Another effor for JCH. Tries a bit more finesse to find the corner from the edge of the box towards the top right corner but gets too much on it.
