Season ticket holders at Progression Solicitors Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Barrow languishing in the 23rd position so far. The guesting Harrogate Town will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Barrow have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Harrogate Town have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
It's no vacation for neither Barrow nor Harrogate Town as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Barrow form and stats
Overall League Two stats at home this season for Barrow are 3-7-4 (wins-draw-losses). Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Barrow, their manager M. Jolley and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Barrow lost their last game at Bolton Wanderers (placed 7th) after a 0-1 scoreline. A strong away win before that one, visiting Oldham Athletic and winning 1-0.
Heartbreak for Barrow in their last match as Bolton Wanderers's S. Miller scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
This is expected to be a close game, with Barrow perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Barrow as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Barrow has won two of these, drawn five and lost four.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Barrow, as the League Two home game vs Mansfield Town is only four days away.
The Barrow fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 14 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Barrow's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 20 times.

Harrogate Town form and stats
7-2-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Harrogate Town in their League Two matches away.
The Harrogate goalkeeper James Belshaw is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 180 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Mark Beck scored in Harrogate's previous match, the home game against Grimsby Town that ended 1-0. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Mansfield Town.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager S. Weaver when Mark Beck scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 68th minute.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Harrogate Town playing away and similar expectations, we found 17 relevant matches. Results were eight Harrogate wins, three draws and six defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Harrogate Town now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League Two game at Stevenage is waiting in only four days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Harrogate have scored 23 goals in 16 league games away. 22 goals have been conceded by Harrogate in these games.
