Recent respective form guides

Barnet need to improve on their recent home record of just 3 draws from the previous six. While Bees have scored 4, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Rotherham's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. The Millers have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded 8.

Barnet are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 22 points from 28 matches. Rotherham are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 26 from their 27 matches played after their 17 point deduction.
