Match Facts
Oxford United are aiming to do a league double over Barnsley for the first time ever, whilst they could also win back-to-back matches against The Tykes for the second time in the Football League after two wins between May 1985 and December 1988.
Barnsley have won just one of their last six Football League games away from home against Oxford United (D3 L2) but that sole victory did come last season under Michael Duff (2-1).
Oxford have only lost one of their last nine midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) league games (W5 D3), a 0-2 defeat at Wigan in October.
Barnsley have won each of their last five midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) league games, last having a longer such run in the Football League from March to April 1979 (7).
