Match Preview | Barrow Raiders visit Olympic Legacy Park this Sunday!

27/04/2024

Sheffield Eagles return home for the first time since the middle of March when we take on Barrow Raiders at Olympic Legacy Park on Sunday afternoon (3pm).

The Eagles head into Sunday’s game five games unbeaten in the Betfred Championship table, sitting joint-top of the league table, alongside recently relegated Wakefield Trinity.

Mark Aston has named his 21-man squad for this weekend’s fixture, which sees Alex Foster return into the fold following suspension.

We take on a Barrow Raiders side who will look to return to winning ways following last weekend’s defeat at home to Doncaster.
