Barrow Raiders will go in search of back-to-back wins on Good Friday as they return home to face Widnes Vikings in Round 9 of the Betfred Championship.
The two teams head into the Easter weekend with 10 competition points, albeit Widnes have played a game more than Paul Crarey’s side.
Off the back of a 29-24 victory at Hunslet last time out, the Raiders will hope to keep that momentum going, in front of what is expected to be a sizeable crowd at the newly-named Speed Competitions Stadium.
Below, we’ve compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.
