Northampton vs Bristol Rovers: analysis of the match
Northampton host a formidable Bristol Rovers side in what promises to be a decisive clash in the league. The Cobblers sit in 17th place with just six points from a win, three draws and two defeats, having scored three and conceded five so far. Rovers, perched in second with twelve points after four victories and two losses, boast a much stronger record of twelve goals for and eight against. The gulf in form means Northampton will need to tighten up defensively and find a way past a Rovers attack that has already found the net twice per game on average. A positive result could lift Northampton out of the relegation mire, while Bristol Rovers will look to close the gap on the leaders.
