Sports Mole takes a look at Saturday's Championship clash between Barnsley and Bristol City at Oakwell.

Barnsley welcome Bristol City to Oakwell on Saturday looking to prevent a three-match losing streak since they beat Middlesbrough on the opening day of the season.

Keith Hill's squad is crippled by an injury crisis, with up to 10 players struggling for fitness.

Mido is still missing for the Tykes, so that could see Kelvin Etuhu partner Marlon Harewood in attack.

Meanwhile, Derek McInnes has no such worries as Liam Fontaine is the only doubt for the Robins.

The club captain is struggling with an ankle injury, meaning that Lewin Nyatanga could plug the gap in defence.

Current form:
Barnsley:
WLL
Bristol City: LWW

Possible lineups:

Barnsley: Gonzalez; Hassell, Golbourne, Foster, Wiseman; Dawson, Cywka, Mellis, Davies; Harewood, Etuhu

Bristol City: Heaton; Foster, Carey, Nyatanga, Cunningham; Adomah, Skuse, Pearson, Woolford; Stead, Taylor

Sports Mole says: 1-2
