History of the Barnet v Gillingham fixture

Barnet prepare to entertain Gillingham at Underhill Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to maintain a near-perfect record against their opponents. The Bees have claimed victory from 4 of the previous 5 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Underhill Stadium was just last season, in November 2007, the Bees carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a F.A. Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Barnet's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Bees have scored 5, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Gillingham's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. While the The Gills have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Barnet are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 14 from their 19 matches played. Gillingham lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League Two, picking up 31 from their 19 games so far.
