Another home match, this time it’s Barnsley on Good Friday 15:00.
Once more we play a side desperate for points, they are third from bottom, 8 points adrift of Reading and safety, with a game in hand.

In the corresponding away fixture last November, Markus Schopp, who had won only one of his 15 games in charge, had just been dismissed.
It was his replacement Poya Asbaghi's first game in charge, and began with defeat as late goals from Ntcham and Paterson gave the Swans victory at Oakwell.
Both clubs had seen a change of leadership since they’d met in last season's Championship play-off semi-finals, where Steve Cooper’s Swans overcame Valerien Ismael's Barnsley side, which proved to be the last game in charge for both men.
Barnsley have struggled all season, but we can expect a tough game with them fighting the drop.
