Barnet – Salford City

Barnet’s comfortable 3‑1 victory over Salford City at The Hive not only reinforced their unbeaten run but also cemented their position at the top of the table with 12 points from six games. The home side’s three wins and three draws have given them a healthy +5 goal difference (14 scored, nine conceded), while Salford remain stuck in the lower half, sitting 15th with just seven points and a negative two‑goal margin. The win widened the gap between the two clubs, as their only previous encounter this season ended in a Barnet triumph. With the season still in its early stages, Barnet looks set to maintain their momentum, whereas Salford must regroup quickly to avoid slipping further down the table.
