Accrington host Barnet at the Wham Stadium in an intriguing FA Cup matchup. The hosts managed to prevail in their League Trophy encounter against Grimsby, in what was their second successive win with a 1-0 scoreline. Most importantly, Accrington have managed to recover from a dismal October which involved five defeats in six to now boast three wins in their last five games. With regards to their home form, the hosts have had mixed fortunes of late, winning three and losing three of their last six home encounters. Their record against Barnet has been impressive when hosting them at the Wham Stadium, prevailing in three of their last four encounters there and losing just one in nine. 

Barnet have been on an impressive run of late, with their home win against Torquay making it five consecutive games unbeaten. More specifically, the visitors have won four of those games, conceding just a goal in the process. With regards to their FA Cup run so far, Barnet easily breezed past through Weston-super-mare in the qualification round, yet needed a replay fixture to edge past Chelmsford. Their away record has also overseen a stark improvement in recent weeks. Despite Barnet losing four of their last five away games during late September and early October, conceding a staggering nineteen goals in the process, they have won each of their last four on the road, keeping three clean sheets. On the downside, their record has been relatively poor when visiting Accrington, managing to win just one of their last nine encounters.
