Promotion hopefuls Barnsley will be out to record a fifth League One win on the bounce when they travel to the Kassam Stadium to face Oxford United on Saturday afternoon. Karl Robinson’s side played out a 1-1 draw with Accrington Stanley in their most recent match, while the visitors bested Peterborough United 2-1.
The less that is said about Oxford United’s start to the season the better, but long-serving head coach Karl Robinson has turned his side’s fortunes around in recent weeks, and the U’s are now unbeaten in nine games in all competitions. That resilient streak includes a run of seven League One games without defeat – although they have only won two of them, with the other five ending all square – and they failed to convert one point into all three during last weekend’s battle with Accrington Stanley.
Oxford took the lead on the 58-minute mark through James Henry, but a 40-yard thunderbolt from Ethan Hamilton rescued a point for Accrington Stanley in the 84th minute, preventing Robinson’s side from jumping into the top half as they sit 14th in the standings.
Only six points separates Oxford from the playoff positions – such is the congested nature of the League One table – but Robinson was left “furious” after warning his side about the prowess of Hamilton’s left foot, which they failed to heed.

Barnsley vs Oxford Utd Prediction
We say: Oxford United 1-2 Barnsley
Putting the ball into the back of the net has not been a problem for Oxford United, but keeping the opposition at bay is not their forte, and a goal-happy Barnsley are sure to take advantage of such frailties.
The Tykes’ stellar defensive record on the road should also come into play, and even with a couple more injury concerns to work around, we still expect Duff’s men to travel back to South Yorkshire with another three points in the bag.
