History of the Cheltenham Town v Barnet fixture

Recent respective form guides

Cheltenham Town's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Robins have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Barnet's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The Bees's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.

Cheltenham T.'s 39 points from 30 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position. Barnet find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 30 games have yielded only 26 points.
