THE PREDICTION
After a Lyle Taylor brace sealed a 2-0 victory for Nottingham Forest against Wycombe last time out, they make the trip to Oakwell to face a Barnsley side moving up the Championship table, having won three of their last four games under new head coach Valerien Ismael. Whilst Forest have the better individual players here, Barnsley’s squad is younger and more vibrant. This could lead to tight encounter with the visitors having not conceded more than a goal a game under Chris Hughton. In the end, both sides may be content to settle for a point in this one.
