History of the Barnet v Accrington Stanley fixture

Barnet prepare to entertain Accrington Stanley at Underhill Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The two sides drew on their own previous meeting.

The only previous meeting between Barnet and Accrington S. at was just last season, in September 2003, when they played out a goalless draw in a Conference match.
