Barrow face a trip to Mansfield Town at Field Mill on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bluebirds will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in August 2009, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4 - 1 thriller, in a (Conference) Premier match.
