Prediction: 1-1
Northampton
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Bristol Rovers and Leyton Orient, Burton Albion will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Northampton Town on Saturday afternoon. The Brewers have been showing signs of improvement in recent weeks and they are surely capable of matching the Cobblers in front of home fans. Martin Paterson is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the O’s at the weekend.
Northampton Town, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to Leyton Orient, beating Bristol Rovers, while sharing the spoils with Oxford United. Anyhow, we are tempted to place our bets on draw this time out as Burton have found their form. The likes of Tyler Magloire, Danny Hylton, Ali Koiki, Sam Hoskins, and Akin Odimayo remain on the sidelines with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Burton):
Burton Albion are one of the four clubs that secure promotion to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign. The Brewers welcome their rivals at Pirelli Stadium, the venue that was opened in 2005. The capacity of the stadium is 6,912, while the seating capacity of the venue is 2,034.
Burton Albion won the FA Trophy in 1987, with the team winning Football League Two in 2015. During the club’s non-League period, the Brewers’ local rivals were Nuneaton Borough, Tamworth, Stafford Rangers and Gresley Rovers, but while they were playing in the Football League the club’s rivals were Crewe, Port Vale, Notts County and Chesterfield.
Derby County are considered Burton Albion’s rivals as well, but the rivalry with the Rams is rather friendly. The colour of Burton Albion’s home kit is black and yellow, while they wear white and grey jerseys on the travels.
