Barrow Raiders will look to bounce back from last weekend’s disappointing defeat with a trip to Greater Manchester to face Swinton Lions this Sunday in the Betfred Championship.

The two sides are only separated in the table by points difference, with Swinton boasting a better average, and they will be aiming to make amends following their close 20-16 defeat to Batley Bulldogs last weekend.

In the same vein, the Raiders will also be hoping to put their recent woes behind them following back-to-back defeats to Bradford Bulls and Halifax Panthers.

Below, we’ve compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.
