Betfred Championship EVOGO

Match Preview | We head to Barrow this Saturday!

09/06/2026

It’s a return to Betfred Championship action this weekend for the Eagles as we head to the Speed Competitions Stadium to face Barrow Raiders on Saturday evening (6pm KO).

Craig Lingard’s side will look to bounce back from that defeat at home to London three weeks ago, as we go in search of a result which could see us make a return to winning ways in the Betfred Championship.

Currently sat 7th in the league table, we know a victory this Saturday could see us move level on points with Doncaster, who currently sit one place above us in the league table.

We take on an in-form Barrow Raiders side this weekend, who currently sit third in the league. An emphatic win on the road at Cumbrian neighbours Workington Town last weekend saw them record their 11th win of the season.

Read below for all the key information ahead of Saturday night’s trip to Barrow Raiders.
