The Championship strugglers faced the Swans on Saturday and will be taking on the Baggies of Slaven Bilic on Tuesday night.
Barnsley caretaker manager Adam Murray has made a comparison between Swansea City, who the Tykes played at the weekend, and West Bromwich Albion, who they will be facing on Tuesday night, as quoted by the Yorkshire Post.
Oakwell hosted the Swans - currently flying high in the Championship - on Saturday and the visitors took the lead through Andre Ayew in the 67th minute, only for Alex Mowatt to equalise within three minutes for a share of the spoils.
Up next for Barnsley is the Baggies, who Slaven Bilic has led to the top of the table thanks to an impressive tally of seven wins and four draws from 12 games, not to mention 13 goals scored and just nine shipped.
The Hawthorns will host the game and West Brom are heavy favourites to get a good result against the league's current basement side, but Murray is in bullish mood even against a side he suggests are the best in the second tier.
“For me, Swansea are good, but these (West Brom) are on a different playing field," he is quoted by the Yorkshire Post as saying. “We had a meeting (on Monday morning) and you can go there with fear and anxiety as they have such good players; Premier League players and they are top of the league.
“But I do not think we are about that and that is not in our make-up. We will go there with structure, but at the same time, go and attack. Nobody expected us to get anything on Saturday, apart from within our dressing room. No-one is going to expect anything from us (at West Brom). We enjoy ruining parties, so that will be our plan.”
This will be the first league meeting between West Brom and Barnsley since May 2010, when the two sides shared a 1-1 draw (BBC Sport).
