Barent are once again swiftly back in action on Tuesday evening, this time welcoming York City to The Hive for this Sky Bet League Two clash, KO 7:45pm.
Dean Brennan’s side will be looking to bounce back from the disappointment of Saturday’s draw with Oldham Athletic.
Despite Kabongo Tshimanga’s sixth strike in five games, the Bees were ultimately pegged back by Mike Fondop’s late late effort – ensuring the points were shared in what proved to be a frustrating day in North London.
However, we now welcome a York City side who will certainly provide their own threats and will be keen to continue their recent impressive run of form – with their last defeat coming back in mid-September.
Barnet’s Last Five:
Barnet 1-1 Oldham Athletic – Sky Bet League Two
Barnet 1-3 Swindon Town – Sky Bet League Two
Tranmere Rovers 1-2 Barnet – Sky Bet League Two
Bristol Rovers 1-3 Barnet – Sky Bet League Two
AFC Wimbledon 0-0 (7-8 on Penalties) Barnet – Jersey Mikes Trophy
York City:
Having sealed a dramatic return to the EFL back in April, York City have certainly wasted no time in cementing their promotion ambitions this time around.
An impressive start to the 2026/27 campaign sees them heading to The Hive sitting in 5th place, having picked up 20 points from their opening 12 games – a fete not to be messed with.
However, the Minstermen have somewhat struggled on the road this term, with all five of their victories coming at Bootham Crescent – something they will be keen overcome sooner rather than later.
In the dugout: Scott Lindsey
Experienced boss Scott Lindsey arrived at York City in the summer, as they looked to hit the ground running upon their return to the Football League.
Having begun his management career with Lincoln City, Lindsey would later enjoy spells with Chatham Town and Swindon Town before completing a switch to Crawley Town in 2023.
It was with the Red Devils where he guided them to League One courtesy of a play-off final victory over Crewe in May 2024.
Stints with MK Dons and a return to Crawley would follow, before joining York in the summer.
One to watch: Alex Newby
Experienced striker Alex Newby arrived at York in July 2025 and the now 30-year-old has continued impress ever since.
A helpful 12 goals last term helped the Minstermen seal a return to the EFL, while a fruitful 6 from 13 appearances already this time around has certainly contributed to York’s fine start to the season and contributed to their move up the League Two table.
York’s last five:
York City 2-0 Port Vale – Sky Bet League Two
York City 1-1 Accrington Stanley – Sky Bet League Two
Newport County 1-1 York City – Sky Bet League Two
York City 1-1 Northampton Town – Sky Bet League Two
York City 3-0 Gillingham – Sky Bet League Two
Last time out:
Barnet 3-1 York City – Tuesday 18th February 2025
Table-topping Barnet clinched a memorable victory over fellow promotion rivals York City in February 2025.
Despite a late effort from Malachi Fagan-Walcott, strikes from Adebola Oluwo, Lee Ndlovu and Anthony Hartigan wrapped up all three points for the Bees.
