Our pre-match preview

Expect a cautious opening from both sides as neither team's recent form is documented here, with the home side likely to press for early control at Priestfield. Set pieces and wide delivery are likely to be the main routes to chances as the game settles.

The key battle is between the Gillingham midfield and the Barrow central pairing, where whoever wins the second balls will dictate tempo. A disciplined defensive shape from the visitors could keep the scoreline tight.
