The Burton captain Ryan Sweeney is up on his feet after that collision with Joe Gauci.

He has to go off after receiving treatment and while he's off the field Barnsley open up the visitors but Kyran Lofthouse all on his own in the area blazes his shot over.

That's the best chance of the game.

Joe Gauci comes out to punch away a Burton free-kick.

In doing so the Barnsley goalkeeper has wiped out Ryan Sweeney leaving the visiting skipper on the floor.

He will need some treatment.

Better from the visitors.

Lovely feet from Michael Olakigbe, who dances his way across the edge of the area and lets fly a left footed shot goalward which Cheltenham just about manage to block.

Barnsley's Adam Phillips takes a tumble in the box.

There are half-hearted shouts for a penalty which are waved away.

It sums up this first period - half-hearted.

Oh a chance for Burton.

Awful mix up at the back for Barnsley sees Rumarn Burrell in down the right of the box but rather than shoot he squares the ball to Jon Dadi Bodvarsson but the Icelandic striker can't sort his feet out and it ends up bouncing off him into the arms of Joe Gauci.

Given his recent form I expected that to end up in the net.

Bodvarsson has scored four goals in his last three matches which have all been Burton wins.

Listen to the Gillingham fans, there are 'boos' from the home supporters behind the goal.

It has been a horrific start for Gillingham.

Stevenage's Nick Freeman is booked after bringing down Vincent Harper as he looked like he was about to burst into the box.

Jon Russell forces Max Crocombe into the first serious save of the game.

His snap shot from the edge of the area has the Burton goalkeeper going full length away to his left to keep the ball out.

Neither side managing to generate anything potent in front of goal with a quarter of the game now gone. We need a little bit of quality.

Nearly 64% possession for Barnsley in the opening 25 minutes at Oakwell.

If only that meant something to the scoreline.

Burton very comfortable at the moment.

Shadrach Ogie sees yellow for pulling down Jodi Jones just on the corner of the box after the Notts man slipped past him on the right flank.

That was cynical and only a yard away from being a penalty but Notts County cannot capitalise from the free kick.

Burton send in a corner which has goalkeeper Joe Gauci scrambling to his near post but defender Josh Earl is there to head away before the ball ends up in the net.

Gauci only joined Barnsley on loan from Aston Villa on Thursday and he watches from the other end as Davis Keillor-Dunn finds some space on the edge of the box and curls an effort just wide of the post.

It's livening up in south Yorkshire.

They are the goals that get you promoted, when you are not in the game and you steal a goal.

For all the positivity from the Gills, it is goals that win games but there is still time for them to get back into the game.

15 minutes gone in this one, it's 15 minutes of our lives we're not going to get back.

It's VERY 0-0.

We've had an Adam Phillips shot straight at Max Crocombe for the home side and that's your lot.

The hosts look to respond and come close with a decent effort of their own.

The ball is played on the floor across the top of the box to Stevenage's Jordan Roberts who strikes it first time with a curled effort that flies narrowly wide of the left-hand post.

There is some good pressing from Gillingham and Notts County are looking a little bit tentative.

There is a bit of crowd noise and a good positive start, it would of been good to have the lead of course .

There is lots of energy, lets hope we can maintain that.
