History of the Crewe Alexandra v Barnet fixture

Crewe Alex. prepare to entertain Barnet at The Alexandra Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the The Railwaymen.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Alexandra Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2010, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Two match.
