Leeds United v Barnsley Record

Barnsley FC

Founded: 1887
Ground: Oakwell

Barnsley FC, founded in 1887, is based in South Yorkshire and has spent most of its history in the second and third tiers of English football. Their sole top-flight season came in 1997–98. They play at Oakwell, one of England’s more traditional football grounds.

Leeds United and Barnsley have shared a fierce local rivalry. In recent years, Leeds have had the upper hand, including a tense 1-0 victory at Oakwell in the 2019–20 promotion campaign. However, Barnsley’s wins in the 2016–17 season still sting for many Leeds fans.
