Barnsley 0-2 Swansea
Callum Brittain's cross from the right is met by Cauley Woodrow, but the angle is awkward and he heads well wide.
Barnsley 0-2 Swansea
Connor Roberts continues to cause problems for Barnsley with his long throws, which have been a real weapon for Swansea tonight.
He is not quite Rory Delap, but Roberts' deliveries appear flatter and sharper than in the past.
Barnsley 0-2 Swansea
A lovely touch from Korey Smith sends Lowe surging forward again but his attempt to feed Connor Roberts is picked off.
Valerien Ismael makes the first changes of the night, with new signing Carlton Morris on for his debut.
Romal Palmer is also on as Herbie Kane and Conor Chaplin make way.
Barnsley 0-2 Swansea
Jamal Lowe is interested again as Swansea lift a ball forward but Michael Sollbauer deals with this one.
Lowe is now Swansea's nine-goal leading scorer thanks to his sparkling recent run.
Jamal Lowe
Swansea double their lead through Jamal Lowe, who strokes home his seventh goal in seven league games after Barnsley get into a defensive mess.
The Tykes should deal with Matt Grimes' looping header but Mads Andersen and Michal Helik fail to clear.
Lowe - who may have been marginally offside - picks up the loose ball and beats the helpless Jack Walton.
Barnsley 0-1 Swansea
That would have been quite something.
The all-action Connor Roberts tries his luck with a 20-yard volley after a corner is half-cleared.
The Wales man catches the ball beautifully with his weaker left foot but his effort flashes past the post.
Barnsley 0-1 Swansea
Swansea threaten first in the second period as Andre Ayew and then Jay Fulton send balls into the danger area.
For a moment Barnsley look like they may get themselves into trouble as the ball ricochets around their six-yard box, but eventually it is cleared.
Barnsley 0-1 Swansea
Barnsley have a battle on their hands as they look to turn this contest around.
Swansea, after all, have conceded only 13 goals in the league this season and have also clocked up 13 clean sheets.
Barnsley 0-1 Swansea
The second half is off and running.
Can Barnsley find a way back into this game, or will Swansea build on that Ben Cabango goal late in the first period?
HT: Barnsley 0-1 Swansea
Swansea still have much work to do if they are to turn their half-time advantage into a sixth away league victory of the season.
But if they do go on to claim three points, Steve Cooper's team will be back within four points of Championship leaders Norwich City - and will move four clear of third-placed Bournemouth.
Barnsley, who began the game in 10th, will jump up to seventh if they can turn things around.
The whistle goes and it is Swansea who, somewhat fortuitously, turn around in front.
Steve Cooper's team had created almost nothing until Ben Cabango headed home from a long throw just before the break.
It has been a game of few chances, but Barnsley had been the more threatening side until Cabango struck.
Now Swansea, the team with the best defensive record in the EFL, have something to protect.
Ben Cabango
Swansea snatch the lead with the last act of the first half.
The goal comes from another Connor Roberts long throw, with Ben Cabango rising high to steer a fine header into the far corner of the net.
That is the centre-back's third of the season.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
We are into one minute of added time.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
Alex Mowatt tries to drive into the Swansea box but Matt Grimes does well to smother the danger and win this tussle between the two captains.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
Swansea have a free-kick in a dangerous area but Connor Roberts opts not to whip it into the box.
Instead he tries to find Matt Grimes on the edge of the area but Barnsley clear easily.
Not the best dead-ball routine, that.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
We have a shot on target.
Callum Styles steps in off the left flank and fires goalwards from 20 yards, but it is another fairly routine stop for Freddie Woodman.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
A rare foray into the Barnsley box for Swansea as Jay Fulton feeds Jamal Lowe.
Andre Ayew is well in the middle, but Mads Andersen gets in front of Lowe to snuff out the danger.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
Swansea continue to struggle to offer anything in attack here.
Barnsley have not created much either, but Steve Cooper will be the happier of the two bosses if this game is still goalless at half-time.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
If Connor Roberts took on Herbie Kane in a long-throw contest, Roberts would win.
Kane's latest effort is dealt with at the near post.
Barnsley 0-0 Swansea
Connor Roberts' long throw has really come on in recent months.
He hurls another one into the box which Barnsley eventually deal with.
The fact that Swansea are opting for that tactic is a sign that they are struggling to get their passing game going.
