History of the Mansfield Town v Barrow fixture

Mansfield Town prepare to entertain Barrow at Field Mill on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Stags are clearly on top, winning 56.52% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Field Mill was less than a year ago, in April 2009, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a (Conference) Premier match.
