Barnet face a challenge to maintain their high-scoring form at home against a tight Bromley defence on Tuesday.

With 84 goals in 43 games, Barnet are the second-highest scorers in the National League ahead of the 7.45pm kick-off at the Hive Stadium.

They face a Ravens side who have scored 65 in 42 matches, but conceded only 45 goals, putting them second among the league’s tightest defences – only Southend United have conceded fewer goals.

On average, the Bees scored 1.3 goals and the Ravens 1.6 in those matches.

Their last meeting was on March 9, when Bromley won 2-0 at home.

The hosts are in reasonable form in the National League, with three wins and two draws from their last six games.

With two wins and three draws over that period, the Ravens’s form is slightly worse – they have taken nine points from 18, compared to Barnet’s 11.
