Barnsley skipper Brian Howard believes Saturday's game against Leicester is the biggest of the season, eclipsing any FA Cup giant-killing.Barnsley sit four points above the relegation zone and victory over their opponents will make certain of their Championship status for the next campaign.

Speaking to the club's official website, Howard said: "Forget all about every other match this season - this is the biggest game of the campaign by a mile and one we have to win.

"It is a huge game for us. Forget about Liverpool, Chelsea or Wembley, this is the biggest game and it is vitally important that we win."

The Oakwell captain also revealed staying in the division was the number one target for the side and they must take advantage of

controlling their own destiny.

He added: "If we win, we stay up. It's as simple as that. Our objective has always been Championship safety. We still have that in our own hands and we will stay up with three points on Saturday."
