Attention turns back to league action this Sunday as Barrow Raiders welcome Oldham to the Northern Competitions Stadium in the Betfred Championship.
It’s been a mixed start to league proceedings for Paul Crarey’s men so far, with a victory and a defeat in their opening two fixtures, but he will be hoping that they can build on their recent 34-16 win away at Goole Vikings in the 1895 Cup last weekend.
The Raiders will be more than aware of the challenge facing them this weekend after they were knocked out of the Challenge Cup by the Roughyeds in a 42-4 defeat at Boundary Park last month.
Below, we’ve compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.
