MATCH PREVIEW | ALTRINCHAM

The Bees welcome Cheshire side Altrincham FC to the Hive tomorrow night looking to bounce back from Saturday’s defeat at Gateshead.

 

Barnet FC:

In our last league outing away in the northeast against table toppers Gateshead, it was the hosts who took all three points in a two-nil win at the Gateshead International Stadium. Callum Whelan opened the scoring early on with a shot from inside the box and despite most of the pressure coming from the bees it was the hosts who grabbed the second in the second half. Kain James Kofi Adom got this one after his effort rolled past Hayes.

Altrincham FC

Tomorrow’s visitors have had a mixed start to their league campaign this year following their play-off heartbreak last season at Bromley. Having won three and losing three, Alty come into this game in 11th and will be looking to build on from their impressive 4-0 home win against Ebbsfleet United on Saturday. Linney, Newby, Jones and Reddin where the quadruple to get their names on the scoresheet in that contest.

In the opposite dugout:

Altrincham are currently managed by former Nantwich player and head coach Phil Parkinson who has been at the helm of Alty since 2017. Since then, he has guided his side to two promotions from the Northern Premier League to the National League where he will be targeting to go one better into the football league. Whilst in the National League with the Cheshire side he has finished in the play-offs once as well as getting to the FA Trophy semi-final in 2023 which they lost on penalties to FC Halifax Town.

Ones to watch

Forward Regan Linney will be one to look out for tomorrow night, the striker who has two goals so far this season including one in the last game against Aldershot when he scored the opener after nine minutes. With star man Chris Conn-Clarke departing in the summer, Linney will be looking to carry the baton of goals for Alty season.

 

Last time these two sides met:

The last time these two sides met was in January this year when in a close thrilling encounter at the J. Davidson Stadium it was Altrincham who took the win. Alex Newby opened the scoring in the opening minute before Lewis Baines made it two on the stroke of half time. An unfortunate own goal looked to have Alty cruising to three points before two late goals from Harry Pritchard and Idris Kanu had the hosts nervous, but they were able to hang on in the end.
