Barrow prepare to entertain Tamworth at Holker Street Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Bluebirds won the only previous game contested between the two.
The only previous meeting between Barrow and Tamworth at was just last season, in April 2008, with Barrow running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a (Conference) North match.

Recent respective form guides
Barrow will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Bluebirds have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.
Tamworth's away form is none too clever either, remaining unbeaten in the last six, though five of those have been draws. The Lambs's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 6 goals for and 5 against.
Barrow are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 4 points from 5 matches. Tamworth lie just outside the playoff positions in the Blue Square (Conference) Premier, picking up 9 from their 5 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Bluebirds at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Lambs come away with an easy victory. Away win
