Hill without seven of his squad

Barnsley manager Keith Hill will choose his starting line-up for Friday's home game with West Ham from an unchanged squad.

Hill has no new injury or suspension problems, but is still without seven first-team players as the Tykes bid to steer clear of relegation trouble. Winger Matt Done (back/hamstring), midfielders Jacob Butterfield and David Perkins, right-back Bobby Hassell (all knee), centre-half Rob Edwards (hamstring) and goalkeeper Luke Steele (abdomen) remain sidelined through injury, while another midfielder, Nathan Doyle, sits out the second game of a three-match ban. Steele will miss at least the next three games and could be ruled out for the rest of the season, so David Button, on loan from Tottenham, will continue. Striker Kallum Higginbotham, a recent loan signing from Huddersfield, is pushing for his first start after stepping off the substitutes' bench in last week's defeat at Ipswich.
