The month begins at Sixfields on Saturday when the resurgent Cobblers host Morecambe. Both sides currently have hopes of making a run for the play-offs with just one place and one point separating them in the table.
Chris Wilder's side then have a trio of games against the teams who currently occupy the bottom three places in League Two, Hartlepool (away on February 10), Mansfield (away Feb 14) and York (home Feb 21).
Hartlepool are showing signs of improvement under Ronnie Moore but the games offer a real chance for the Cobblers to push for a top-seven place.
February ends with a trip to face a Shrewsbury side currently top of the table.
