Barrow Raiders are back on home soil this Sunday as they welcome Featherstone Rovers to the Northern Competitions Stadium in Round 12 of the Betfred Championship.
Despite a resilient performance in the south of France last weekend, the Raiders saw their four-game unbeaten streak ended as they fell to a 30-12 defeat against league leaders Toulouse Olympique.
Paul Crarey’s men will be eager to bounce back in front of the Raiders faithful, but it’s shaping up to be yet another tough test in the form of a resurgent Featherstone Rovers side who have recorded four wins in their last five fixtures, which included a resounding 40-14 victory over Oldham to book their place in the 1895 Cup final at Wembley next Saturday.
Below, we’ve compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.
