Preview, Team News, and Swindon vs Barrow Lineups
Swindon
Only a couple of months ago Swindon looked like a team that could fight for promotion, but now, eight weeks later, they are disappointed in how their season has come to fold. They are without a win for eight straight matches including four losses in a row and their fans are gutted that a good situation has turned sour. There is not much to play for in the next five games, but to push other teams into a bad run of play and involved themselves in the decision of who will play in the playoffs.
Provisional lineup: Brynn, Lavinier, Brewitt, Blake-Tracey, Tomlinson, Khan, McEachran, Williams, Shade, Wakeling, Hepburn-Murphy.
Barrow
Contrary to their opponent, Barrow still has a chance in advancing to promotion playoffs. They are currently five points away from the coveted seventh spot, and the team needs to continue winning games to gain some ground and put themselves in a position to compete for the ultimate goal of promotion. Barrow won three out of their last five contests which proved that this team is more than capable of fulfilling their goal. The ambition has changed since the start of the season when the team realized that they are good enough to win games consistently and move the needle when facing complicated situations.
Provisional lineup: Farman, Canavan, McClelland, Feely, Brough, White, Neal, Gotts, Newby, Garner, Gordon.
Starting Lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
Player to Watch: Josh Gordon
Barrow's Josh Gordon has been the star of the season for the visiting team scoring 15 goals and dishing out a single assist to lead the charge for his team and their fight to enter promotion playoffs.
