Barrow pack their bags to visit Southport at Haig Avenue on Sunday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 54 games played, Bluebirds have recorded 10 wins, and Southport have come away with 27 victories.
The previous match played between the two at Haig Avenue was within the last three years, in December 2007, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a (Conference) North match.

Recent respective form guides
Southport's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Sandgrounders have scored 9, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
