History of the Barnsley v Charlton Athletic fixture

Charlton Ath. travel to take on Barnsley at Oakwell on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Addicks will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 12 and win only 4 of the 20 games.

The last time the two teams met at Barnsley was back in December 1999, over five years ago, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a League Division One match.
