Northampton are ready to welcome Stockport County to Sixfields on Monday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Cobblers are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 3 of the 22 games.
The previous match played between the two at Sixfields was within the last three years, in April 2003, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a League Division Two match.
