Barrow shared the glory with Ipswich Town in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Joe Grayson was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.32 out of 10. The defender Grayson won 4 of 6 duels.

Salford City form and stats

There's been little loot from Salford City's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the League Two. Salford City only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a FA Cup home defeat versus Chesterfield with 0-2 on the scoreboard. The attacker Tom Elliott got a match rating of 7.32 in that game.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Oldham Athletic.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Salford City manager G. Bowyer as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Mansfield Town.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Salford have scored 9 goals in 8 league games away. Salford have conceded 12 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Barrow-Salford City H2H statistics last four meetings regardless of arena: Barrow one win, Salford City three wins, zero draws. two of these four matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
