Preview: Huddersfield Town vs. Barnsley

Huddersfield vs. Barnsley

Barnsley travel to local rivals Huddersfield Town on Saturday with both sides unsure of their futures in the Championship.

The Tykes are currently in the relegation zone on goal difference, while three teams and three points separate them and their hosts in the table.

A draw could be enough for the two teams to avoid the drop for another season as long as Peterborough United lose at Crystal Palace.

Jermaine Beckford and Danny Ward returned to training for Huddersfield earlier this week and are expected to feature at the Galpharm Stadium.

Stephen Dawson and Rory Delap are both in contention for the away side following absences through injury.
