Barnet have just come away with a 1-0 win at Tranmere Rovers earlier this year, and before that they won 2-0 at home. This time it is different in that Tranmere Rovers are in a spell where their defence has tightened up a lot, even if they still struggle to win. Tranmere Rovers have drawn 3 league games in a row, the latest finishing 1-1 after a 2-4 defeat before that. This team keeps scoring but also concedes plenty, while Barnet are still unbeaten in the league across all 8 games they have played, picking up 18 points and sitting 2nd in the table. Barnet's attack produces goals consistently, but their defence also shows moments of vulnerability. If Tranmere Rovers score first, the game is likely to become one where Barnet have to push forward more, and the gaps in midfield will widen immediately. But if Barnet take the lead first, Tranmere Rovers will have to push up high, which is when the home side's defence often has problems.
