Barrow prepare to entertain Mansfield Town at Holker Street Stadium on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bluebirds are clearly on top, having won 13 and lost only 6 of the 25 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Holker Street Stadium was just last season, in August 2008, the Bluebirds carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a (Conference) Premier match.
