Barnsley are sweating on the fitness of last season's top scorer Sam Winnall ahead of their first-round Sky Bet EFL Cup game against Northampton at Oakwell.

The striker lasted just four minutes in Saturday's 4-2 defeat at Ipswich before limping off clutching his hamstring.

Manager Paul Heckingbottom could hand Angus MacDonald a debut after the defender, who arrived from Torquay last week, sat out a one-match suspension at Portman Road.

George Moncur could make his first start since joining from Colchester after coming off the bench on Saturday, while fellow newcomer Elliot Lee will be hoping to make his debut.
