History of the Oxford United v Barrow fixture

Oxford Utd. prepare to entertain Barrow at The Kassam Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the U's.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Kassam Stadium was less than a year ago, in February 2009, with Oxford Utd. running out comfortable 3-0 winners in a (Conference) Premier match.
