Northampton

Northampton have struggled quite a lot in recent years against Mansfield with three defeats in the last four meetings. The recent encounter between these two clubs turned out to be a draw on Boxing Day. Northampton’s offensive problems is likely to see them struggle further in the table, as the team comes under pressure from Carlisle and Salford.

Mansfield

Nigel Clough has seen his Mansfield team remain just outside the play-off places after failing to get the win over Crewe Alexandra last weekend. The likes of Stockport and Walsall remain perilously close to Mansfield and they could end up pushing Clough’s team further down the table. Mansfield do have a very even record against Northampton with seven wins in League Two. They have no injury concerns coming into the game.
