Accrington Stanley vs Northampton Preview
Following a thrilling 5-0 victory over Rochdale, Accrington will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Northampton Town. John Doolan's side have been in solid form, winning three of their last five matches in all competitions, and they currently occupy ninth place in the League Two standings. The Accy Stanley have also been reliable defensively, conceding just 0.90 goals per game across their last ten outings. However, key attacker Josh Woods is a major doubt after picking up an injury at the weekend, which could affect their attacking options.
Northampton, meanwhile, arrive with confidence after beating Colchester 2-0 in their previous league match. The Cobblers have been relatively solid at the back, conceding only 0.90 goals per game overall, and they have no fresh injury concerns. Midfielder Liam Shaw remains sidelined, but otherwise the visitors have a settled squad. You should bear in mind that Northampton and Accrington have shared the spoils in each of their last two meetings at the Wham Stadium.
Anyhow, Accrington to Win or Draw looks a reasonable option, with the hosts in better form and enjoying home advantage. Half-Time Draw and Under 2.5 goals markets are also appealing, as none of the four previous meetings between these sides produced more than two goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday, 31 October 2026 at 15:00.
