Yeovil will be looking to bounce back to the Football League at the first attempt but will have to do it the hard way by coming through the elimination play-off, then an away match, before heading to Wembley.

Before they can think of the final, they will look to make home advantage count against Barnet.

Barnet had only played 35 games of the regular season and enter the play-offs courtesy of points per game, but will take confidence of having the 5th best away record in the National League as they head to Yeovil on Saturday.
