Hartlepool make the trip to Underhill knowing the 2 wins over Easter could mean promotion by Monday tea-time. Barnet, the last team to beat Pools, are the opposition and they will be looking for the points to move them out of the relegation battle

Hartlepool make the trip to London looking to make it 24 unbeaten and to extend the lead at the top to a possible 8 points. Standing in the way is Barnet who were the last team to beat Pools in the League.

The Bee's die out a bit over winter but are getting results now with wins over Swindon, Stockport and Darlington at home. The game will be no pushover for Pools despite the huge difference in the league between the two sides

Danny Wilson may have Tony Sweeney and Micky Barron to select after the their chances of making the game were classed as 50-50. Willie Boland and Joel Porter could also make the sqaud as they seem to be back to full fitness after a run of games in the reserves.

Barnet manager Paul Fairclough is set to be without Andy Hessenthaler and Adam Gross could be out after picking up an ankle injury during last weeks victory over Darlington.
