- 20' Shrewsbury Town FC is showing some good football. However, Shrewsbury Town FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' Barnsley FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.

- 73' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Funso Ojo suffering a number of foals already.
- 78' It looks like no one’s ball. Barnsley FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
