Is Northampton Town v Barnsley FC on TV? Channel and streaming details for League One meeting
The key TV and streaming details ahead of Barnsley’s trip to Northampton Town
Barnsley are set to play the penultimate game of their League One season on the road at Northampton Town.
It will be a continuation of the farewell tour for Conor Hourihane, who will be vacating his post as Barnsley’s head coach when the 2025/26 campaign comes to a close.
Hourihane is a hero at Oakwell but his reign has not yielded the improvement fans hoped for, with the Reds languishing in 15th in the League One table.
Although they may not be involved in the battles playing out near the top and bottom of the table, Barnsley will be keen to pick up points at Sixfields. Players are not just playing for pride, but for their futures beyond the end of the season.
They were beaten 2-1 by Luton Town at the weekend in a game Hourihane felt summed up their season. He said: “I think if there was ever a game to sum up our season it was that. We played really well to get through them, get into the final third countless amounts of times. It was a really tight game in terms of the scoreline and then to come out on the wrong side of it, is really frustrating.
“The lads played well, they’re a team going for the play-offs and I don’t think you can tell the difference in both teams.”
Here are the key TV and streaming details as Barnsley prepare to face rock-bottom Northampton Town.
