Head-to-Head
The previous meeting between these sides finished 1-1 at Barnet's ground in the early stages of this League Two season.
Key Players
- Callum Stead has been in good form for Barnet, scoring seven of their 18 goals in their previous five matches, but the visitors will have other players to call upon.
- Simon Weaver has been at the helm at Harrogate since 2009, and in that time has overseen the development of a high-energy team that presses high and plays with numbers in tight spaces.
- Dean Brennan, who has overseen a marked change in Barnet’s tactical approach since he took over in 2021, sets his team up in a possession-based 3-4-2-1, which allows them to overload sides when they press and to play some nice combination soccer in the final third.
