Leeds United don't have a great record at Oakwell, having lost on four of their last six visits.
But they did win on their last visit there, a 2-0 win in the 2017-18 season in which Leeds completed a league double to contribute to Barnsley's relegation to League One.
There are several former Leeds players that could be lining up for Derby; young trio Mallik Wilks, Aapo Halme and Clarke Oduor made the switch in the summer, and former academy product Alex Mowatt joined in 2017, an integral part of their promotion from League One last year.
Marcelo Bielsa's men make the trip as heavy favourites, and could go back top with three points. But they suffered a first setback before the international break, losing 1-0 at home to Swansea despite dominating the game in terms of possession, territory and major chances.
Leeds have been especially strong away from home this season, winning four of four in all competitions with an 11-1 aggregate scoreline, beating Salford and Stoke both 3-0 in recent weeks.
Barnsley started the season with a shock win over promotion contenders Fulham, but they've since failed to win any of the following five games, losing three and drawing two.
We recommend going for another comfortable away win for Leeds. The results largely back them up, but they've consistently put in strong and dominant performances and should have too much for their newly-promoted opponents.
