History of the York City v Barnet fixture

Barnet travel to take on York City at Bootham Crecent on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bees will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them with only a 20.00% success rate in the fixture.

The last time the two teams met at York City was just over four years ago, in August 2000, the Minstermen carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides

York City's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Minstermen have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Barnet's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Bees have hit 8 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

York City find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 34 points from their 31 matches. Barnet are leading the way in the Nationwide Conference, with their 31 games giving them a return of 66 points.
