Coulson to answer call

Barnsley striker Michael Coulson is set for a return to the side to face Preston on Saturday and Burnley on Monday.

Oakwell boss Simon Davey has a injury crisis ahead of the weekend, with Miguel Mostto, Martin Devaney and Mounir El Haimur all missing training through injury this week so Coulsen, who has been out for seven months with a knee injury, could return.

Darren Moore has been ruled unfit and Iain Hume continues his recuperation from a fractured skull at home, while midfielder Anderson de Silva is banned from both games and will not play.

Simon Whaley, who is on loan from Preston, cannot play due to the terms of his loan deal, although he will be able to return against Burnley.
