Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Morecambe will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Accrington when they take on Barrow on Matchday 42. The Shrimps did well to put an end to their four-game losing run, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they need to keep on winning if they are to make it to the playoffs. All Brandon Barker, Donald Love, Luca Stephenson, and Farrend Rawson are all out of contention with injuries for the home side.
The Bluebirds, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Newport County and Grimsby Town. Barrow aim to move closer to the automatic promotion berth and given their signs of improvement up front, both teams to score betting option should definitely be considered. A man to watch in the away team will be Cole Stockton, who scored a brace in the last league match.
Highlighted Team (Barrow):
Founded back in 1901, Barrow is an English club that competes in the League two, the fourth tier of the English football system. The Bluebirds are well known for their blue shirts with white details, but yellow is the dominant colour of their away jersey. Barrow play home games at Holker Street, the stadium which can hold up to 5,045 spectators.
The venue was opened in 1909, and it has to be noted that no fewer than 16,874 people attended the FA Cup match between Barrow and Swansea in January, 1954. The Bluebirds have won two FA Trophies (1989/90, 2009/10), with the team lifting the Lancashire Senior Cup trophy in the 1954/55.
The likes of James Bell, Jim Collins, Andy McLaren, Jimmy Mulholland, Jackie Robertson, Barry Diamond, and George King are the most notable footballers who played for Barrow in the past. It has to be noted that the Bluebirds have never competed in the English top flight.
