DI PERFECT GAME IS DOM'S AIM

Both teams will pocket £25,000 in Tuesday night's FA Cup first-round replay, shown on ITV4 and ITVX, following the Hornets' 3-3 draw at Oakwell nine days ago.

Tom Richards' 81st-minute equaliser ensured it finished all square in Yorkshire and now the Isthmian Premier Division side get their chance to complete a giant-killing on the 3G pitch at their Camping World Community Stadium, which is expected to host a sold-out crowd of around 2,000.

And Di Paola says far from being a leveller, he expects Neill Collins' promotion-chasing Tykes to be fired up for the replay and able to adjust to the rarity of playing on an artificial surface.

""I think we've only lost ten matches at home since we moved to the ground but I don't think it's an advantage for us - any League One team, on their game, if they're at it, they'll beat you," he told The NLP.
