Barnsley host Norwich City at the Oakwell on Saturday in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Barnsley come into this game on the back of a 1-0 loss to Xisco Munoz's Watford on Tuesday at Vicarage Road. A first-half penalty from veteran striker Troy Deeney was enough to secure the win for the Hornets.
Norwich City, on the other hand, beat Dean Holden's Bristol City 2-0 on Wednesday at Carrow Road. A brace from former Preston North End and West Ham United striker Jordan Hugill sealed the deal for Daniel Farke's Norwich City.

Barnsley vs Norwich City Prediction
Barnsley have been one of the better teams in the Championship this season, but have been in poor form of late. They have lost three consecutive league games. Valerien Ismael's side, previously seen as candidates for the promotion playoff spots, will be keen to find the winning track again.
Norwich City, on the other hand, are at the top of the Championship, and have strengthened their squad by signing Greek left-back Dimitris Giannoulis from PAOK.
The Canaries have to thank Argentine star Emiliano Buendia for their current position, with the 24-year old arguably the best player in the Championship this season.
Both sides have impressed this season, but given Barnsley's poor current form, Norwich City could emerge victorious.
Prediction: Barnsley 0-1 Norwich City
