Barrow and Gillingham meet in a clash between two out-of-form sides, with both desperate to respond after heavy recent defeats. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, our prediction firmly points toward a 1-1 draw. The Bluebirds are coming off a chaotic 3-2 loss to Fleetwood, a match that also worsened their injury situation. Both Foley and Hemmings remain sidelined, while influential midfielder Eliot Newby is a major doubt after picking up a knock. Their form has dipped sharply, losing four of their last five and averaging just 0.60 points per game overall. Defensively, Barrow concede 1.80 goals per match, and their home scoring rate sits at only 0.50 goals per game, a concern given their lack of available attackers.
Gillingham also suffered a tough blow, falling 3-0 to Oldham, but unlike Barrow they enter this fixture without fresh injury concerns. Their away form is poor (0.60 PPG), yet they concede only 1.00 goal per away match, and their expected goals away (1.73 xG) suggest the Gills should be offering more in attack. Both sides struggle for consistency, but Gillingham appear slightly more stable statistically.
Considering that both teams lack scoring power and Barrow average 0.50 goals at home, we are tempted to place our bets on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw, and Draw.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 28 February 2026 at 15:00.
