Both sides have been on quite an inconsistent run of form, with Peterborough in dire need wins after finding themselves on the brink of the relegation zone in the League, whereas Barnsley are pushing for the play-offs. I believe this form will cross over into the FA Cup. I can see a Barnsley Double Chance (Win or Draw).
