Barnet Hosts Gillingham in League Two Clash

LONDON (Interstat) — Barnet will host Gillingham on Saturday, April 25, 2026, in a League Two matchup at The Hive Stadium, with both teams arriving in contrasting form.

Barnet (sixth in the table entering the weekend) enters on a three-match winning streak, including a 2-1 victory at Notts County on April 18. The Bees have been prolific, scoring nine goals in their last three games, most recently a 5-2 win at Fleetwood Town on April 6. Manager Dean Brennan’s side has won six of its last eight overall, with the lone defeats coming at Salford City (2-0 on March 7) and at home to Newport County (2-1 on March 14).

Gillingham (14th) arrives having lost four of its last five, including a 4-1 defeat at home to Grimsby Town on April 18. The Gills have struggled defensively, conceding 12 goals in their past five matches. Their only win in that stretch came April 6 at Accrington Stanley (2-0), but they have been held scoreless in four of their last seven outings. Manager Stephen Clemence’s side has dropped to the lower half of the table after a 5-0 loss at Cambridge United on March 14 and a 5-1 defeat at home to Milton Keynes Dons on March 10.

The most recent head-to-head meeting, Nov. 22, 2025, ended in a 1-1 draw at Gillingham. Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 final score Saturday.

Barnet will be without key midfielder Idris Kanu, who is serving a one-match suspension after accumulating five yellow cards.

Gillingham forward Ashley Nadesan remains questionable with a hamstring injury that forced him out of the Grimsby loss.

Saturday’s match kicks off at 3 p.m. local time.

Following this fixture, Barnet travels to Harrogate Town on May 2, while Gillingham hosts Shrewsbury Town the same day.
