Barnet are now five points behind Burton Albion - Saturday's opponents.
The Brewers, who beat Macclesfield Town 3-2 on Wednesday night, also have three games in hand.
However, Burton are one of the teams the Bees are still hoping to catch in their battle to avoid the drop.
It means Saturday's trip to Staffordshire is a 'must-win' match for Martin Allen's side.
However, virtually every game for Barnet is just that. With just seven games to go, the Bees might have to win at least five of them to stand a chance of avoiding the dreaded drop.
