Stoke vs Barnsley live stream: how to watch the Championship wherever you are in the world
How to watch a Stoke vs Barnsley live stream, as two relegation favourites lock horns in a classic six-pointer
Stoke vs Barnsley live stream, iFollow, 3pm BST
After a thumping 5-1 demolition of Hull City in the last match before lockdown, Stoke have been dreadful in the restart, taking juts a single point from a possible nine and dropping into the relegation zone.
Michael O’Neill hasn’t had it all his own way since taking to the hot seat in November but with seven wins in 2020 - including an astounding 1-0 away win at West Brom, capped by a great defensive display - the former Northern Ireland boss had more than proved his worth in the club game before the pandemic struck. He now has so much more to prove as the Championship[ enters its final throws.
Barnsley have almost done the same thing in reverse. They were dreadful all season but appear to have turned a corner since the restart, taking seven posts from nine and giving themselves a slither of hope in the bid for survival. They are currently one point behind Saturday's opponents and three from safety. They looked dead and buried in March, but now have something to fight for. Expect fireworks.
Kick-off is at 3pm BST and the game is being shown on iFollow in the UK - the cost for UK residents is £10 per game, but just £6 for overseas viewers, so if you use a VPN you can get it cheaper. See below for watching details where you are.

It costs a tenner to see your team, but it only costs £6 if you are watching from overseas. So a smart tip is to get yourself a handy VPN, and set your location to overseas and pay less. We recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below).
All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.
