The Cobblers look to make it three wins in a row as Yeovil Town come to Sixfields on Saturday afternoon.
Form
The Cobblers have won their last two games, at Crewe and at home to Hartlepool and despite a scrappy game last Friday we stole the 1-0 win against 'Pool to propel us a couple of placeds up the table.
Yeovil are struggling this season after a poor ending to the last campaign continued over to the start of this one. They sit just two places off the foot of the table having not won in seven games. Last weekend, the Glovers were beaten at home, 2-1, by Southend United.
Team News
The Cobblers welcome back Colin Larkin from injury and the front man goes straight back into the squad. Karl Hawley should join Adebayo Akinfenwa up front after extending his loan deal for a further month. The striker scored the only goal in last Friday's win over Hartlepool.
Forward Scott Rendell joined Yeovil on loan from Peterborough United and could make his debut. Stockport County defender Gareth Owen has also joined the club on loan and could feature. Defenders Lee Peltier and Nathan Smith are missing while Aiden Downes and Marc Bircham are also ruled out of the game.
