Bolton have a two-goal advantage
Barnsley will make the trip to Bolton for the second leg of the EFL League One Play-off Semi-finals. Bolton Wanderers picked up a big win in the first leg, but all hope is not lost for Barnsley, who could turn it around this weekend. Following Bolton’s win in the first leg, Barnsley need to pull out both a big win and to keep a clean sheet if they want any shot of making it to the Play-off Final at Wembley. Bolton in their 46 league games won 25, drew 12 and lost 9 matches. They have been very impressive in front of the goal this season and will look to book their place in Wembley.
Barnsley finished the League One season in 6th position the last Play-off spot. In 46 games, Barnsley picked up 21 wins, 13 draws and 12 losses which left them in sixth, just two points above Lincoln and three points above Blackpool. Their last few results have been poor and lack confidence but they will have to perform well and give their best if they want to go to Wembley. This will be an exciting match for sure.

Players to Watch
Dion Charles (Bolton Wanderers)
Charles plays on the blind side of the centre-backs, finding space in between the full-backs and the centre-back. He is a hard-working player and is a very reliable player, this season he has been really good for Bolton. Inside the box he can score from anywhere, he doesn’t shy away from taking shots from a distance as well. With his pace and physicality, he can win duels and is always a big threat to the opposition.
Nicky Cadden (Barnsley)
He is an incredible asset for the team, as he not only contributes in attack but also does his defensive duties very well. With his trickery and pace, he causes a lot of trouble for the opponents. He covers a lot of ground which shows his work ethic, he is also a really good set-piece taker as well. He consistently performs well for his team and always gives his best.
