History of the Barnet v Bristol Rovers fixture

Barnet play host to Bristol Rovers at Underhill Stadium on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. Out of their two previous meetings, the Bees have drawn one game and lost the other.

The last time the two teams met at Barnet was more than a decade ago, in October 1993, with Bristol Rvs. inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Bees in a League Division Two match.
