City return to Sky Bet League One action on Tuesday 9 December (7.45pm KO) with the hosting of Barnsley at the LNER Stadium.
Hear the pre-match thoughts of Michael Skubala and defender Adam Reach, as well as familiarising yourself with the key pre-match information in our preview.
Michael Skubala:
“We played Barnsley in the Vertu Trophy a few weeks and I think from a stylistic point of view it will be a similar challenge, however it will be very different in terms of atmosphere.
“They have a good squad and they can score goals, we’ve seen that from their results this season.
“As ever though, we just need to concentrate on ourselves and how we can impact the game.”
Adam Reach:
"There’s a real togetherness with the fans here, we’ve had a great season so far, which always helps but I think the club overall is on a really good journey.
“I’m here to play a part in that journey and we’re certainly on the right track. We’re going into a period of the season where we’re going to need everyone.
“All the lads in the squad are going to have a part to play.”
Opposition information:
Barnsley are currently 10th in Sky Bet League One with 25 points from 15 games. City have already faced the Tykes in competitive action this season, coming away 2-0 winners away from home in the Vertu Trophy thanks to goals from Frankie Okoronkwo and James Collins.
