Sheffield Wednesday team news

Darren Moore has confirmed that both Marvin Johnson and Dominic Iorfa should be fit enough to play here despite appearing to struggle towards the end of the dramatic comeback against Peterborough.

Midfielder George Byers will hope to make the bench for the first time since suffering a hamstring injury in March, but Moore is not going to tinker with the team that just pulled off a miracle in the semi-final.

Barnsley vs Sheffield Wednesday score prediction

Despite making hard work of their route to the final, Wednesday are the stronger team here. They weren't far behind in the League One title race and finished ten points ahead of their Yorkshire rivals.

Moore's team also have form on their side, with Barnsley's victory over Bolton their first in their last five games, so Wednesday will be confident of getting the upper hand here.

With a stern reminder that there is no second leg to come to the rescue, expect Wednesday to book their place in the Championship.
