Prediction: 3-1
Forest Green
Barrow and Forest Green square off against each other at Holker Street in the League Two round 33. The Bluebirds aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to AFC Wimbledon and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Green Army. Both White and Foley are pushing for a start as the duo Spence – Stephenson failed to impress in the last league match, while experienced forward Jamie Proctor misses out through suspension.
Forest Green, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to Mansfield Town. The Green Army are stuck at the bottom of the table, with the team collecting only 20 points in total to date and given their shaky defence, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Tuesday’s encounter. To make things even worse for the underdogs, goalkeeper Luke Daniels sustained an injury in the defeat to Mansfield.
Highlighted Team (Forest Green):
