Barrow Raiders continue their Challenge Cup campaign this Sunday when they travel to Boundary Park to face Oldham in the third round.
The Raiders booked their place in the next stage of the competition after a dominant 86-6 victory over Crosfields at the Northern Competitions Stadium two weeks ago.
This weekend, they come up against a talented Oldham outfit, who will be keen to make their mark against their fellow league rivals ahead of their return to the Betfred Championship.
The two sides last met at the start of the 2024 season, with the Roughyeds emerging triumphant over the Raiders 22-10, condemning Paul Crarey’s men to an early exit in the first round of the Challenge Cup.
Below, we’ve compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.
