Barnsley hoping to call on Moore for Charlton clash

Barnsley hope to have top scorer Kieffer Moore available for Saturday’s Sky Bet League One home clash with Charlton.

The forward, scorer of 11 league goals this term, was not involved on Boxing Day due to illness as the Tykes won 2-0 against Peterborough.

The result made it seven points for Barnsley from their last three matches.

Daniel Stendel’s men are fifth in the table, a point behind fourth-placed Charlton with a game in hand over them.

Charlton are set to be without Joe Aribo once again.

Aribo missed the 2-1 Boxing Day loss at Coventry because of an injury picked up in the previous match, last Saturday’s 2-0 win over Gillingham, and boss Lee Bowyer said after the game at the Ricoh Arena that the midfielder will be “out for a little while”.

That contest also saw George Lapslie sustain a cut on his head and Bowyer was not expecting him to be available for the trip to Oakwell.

Defender Naby Sarr is a definite absentee as he completes a three-match suspension.
