Both sides have made slow starts to the season, a 4-0 defeat at Swindon last time out leaving Barnet three points above the relegation zone.
The arrival of Lawrie Sanchez towards the end of last season helped the Bees climb away from the dreaded drop and he told the Hendon & Finchley Times: "I think we have got to remember where we came from last year and even the way we started the season because we have fallen away from that in the last four games.
"The type of results we were getting last season were the majority of the same team so we know the way they can perform."
