Recent respective form guides

Macclesfield Town's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While The Silkmen have scored 5, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Barnet's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 8 goals for the Bees, and 6 goals against.

Macclesfield are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 5 from their 6 matches played. Barnet are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 13 points from 6 games.
