Ahead of the match, Owls boss Darren Moore said: "It’ll be a good game,” Moore told the media. “Both clubs have been on a great run and credit to Michael with what he's done there - he's done a great job, really, really good. I have known him at Cheltenham and he's someone who is diligent with his work.

“He's gone to Barnsley with a bit more resources to work with, but you still have to make it work. I always said they were a dangerous team as they had dropped down from the Championship and had the power in the team from the Championship season - to do effective work at League One level. They are effective in what they do and very structured and organised."

Meanwhile, Duff himself said of the Oakwell clash: "It's a big game. It's a full house against your local rivals. There are only three teams above us, and they're one of them. If you want to get higher up the league you have to beat the teams above you. We've done that already a couple of times this year. I'm looking forward to it, I'm sure the players are looking forward to it and I'm sure the supporters are looking forward to it."
