Saturday’s football game at Sixfields Stadium pits together Northampton Town and Cardiff City, the two teams sitting in the opposite halves of the table. The Cobblers aim to build on a 2-1 win over Mansfield and a triumph over Cardiff will see them revive their playoffs hopes. Fit-again forward Tom Eaves is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the EFL Trophy win over Shrewsbury, while trio Hoskins – Vale – Vormleighton remains in the treatment room.
The Bluebirds, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Bolton and Blackpool and given their difficulties on the road, we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from Saturday’s encounter. The P trio Parfitt – Pearce – Parrett is rated doubtful for the away team after limping off with injuries in the EFL Trophy win over Arsenal U21.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 22 November 2025 at 15:00.
