Barnsley are our next visitors to Brisbane Road this season, with a lot having changed for them since their last visit in February, when they waltzed away with a 3-1 victory, courtesy of a David McGoldrick hat-trick.
Dylan Levitt scored our only goal in that game, one of the few substantive contributions he's made in an Orient shirt to date. This is a big game for the O's because if we win it then we will have officially had A GOOD START to the season.
Barnsley: The Club
Our last visitors Sheffield Wednesday, also from South Yorkshire, are just emerging from an extended period of toxic ownership.
