Prediction: 2-1
Bristol Rovers
Sixfields Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Northampton Town and Bristol Rovers, the two teams that are almost level on points in the standings. Northampton aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Wrexham. Therefore, they should adopt an attack-oriented strategy against Bristol Rovers. Jordan Willis is a major doubt after picking up injury against the Dragons, while all Brough, Eyoma, Guthrie, Mbete, Morton, and Sowerby remain in the recovery room.
The Pirates, on the other hand, are hit by Shaqai Forde’s suspension and given their four-game losing run on the road, home win should be considered. The likes of Conteh, O’Donkor, Omochere, and Sawyers are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side. When the two teams met at Sixfields Stadium last season, Northampton Town defeated Bristol Rovers 3-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Team (Northampton):
Northampton are a professional football club that compete in the League Two, the English fourth tier. The Cobblers play their home matches at Sixfields Stadium, the venue that has a capacity of 7,798. Northampton Town are well known for their claret and white home kit, while black is the dominant colour of their away jersey.
Northampton did well to make it to the Charity Shield final in 1909, with the team suffering a 2-0 loss to Newcastle United in the title game. The Cobblers are holding the record for the shortest time taken to secure promotion from the bottom tier to the top flight and relegated back down to the bottom again. Northampton Town managed to do so in only nine years.
Peterborough united are regarded as the club’s main rivals, with other significant rivalries including the likes of Oxford United, Milton Keynes Dons, Cambridge United, Coventry City, and Rushden & Diamonds.
