Northampton vs Harrogate Town Predictions

• Northampton have only lost two of their last ten at home
• Harrogate have won just two of their last 12 matches
• The Cobblers’ four wins in their last eight have contained at least two goals

Northampton still in the hunt for the top three

Five points separates Northampton and third place after a 2-0 win over Oldham on Monday, and they head into this game looking for back-to-back victories for the first time since early February.

The Cobblers are strong on home soil, losing only two of their last ten at Sixfields, picking up five victories in the process, while only two teams in the bottom half have beaten them there this season.

Jon Brady’s side know three points here will go a long way to securing a play-off spot, and although their matches do not guarantee goals, each of their four wins in the last eight have contained at least two goals.

Harrogate’s season in free-fall

Harrogate secured their place in League Two for next season a long time ago, and perhaps that explains why they have won just one in eleven games.

Even that win came against bottom club Scunthorpe, while they are being defeated far too regularly, suffering defeats in seven of their last nine outings.

Simon Weaver’s side have little to play for and that has shown in their performances, keeping only one clean sheet in ten, while each of those games has contained at least two goals.

I predict a Northampton win with at least two goals in the match, selecting a comfortable 2-0 victory to the Cobblers as a correct score prediction.
