Barnsley welcome Burton Albion at Oakwell, Barnsley, South Yorkshire on Tuesday, Dec 29 at 8:45 PM in a League 1 fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Barnsley come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Burton Albion, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
History strongly favours Barnsley here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Burton Albion, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Barnsley a slight edge, but Burton Albion are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
