Prediction: 2-1
Walsall
Northampton Town will look to keep their automatic promotion hopes alive when they take on Walsall in the League Two round 30. The Cobblers did well to beat Barrow at the weekend, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but Jon Brady’s men need to keep on improving their game if they are to secure a top-three finish. Shaun McWilliams should be recalled to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while on-loan signing Tete Yengi could make his Northampton debut against Walsall.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Salford City, but seeing that the promotion-chasing hosts are high on spirits following the triumph against the Bluebirds, home win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of Saturday’s encounter.
