The Cobblers record at Sixfields so far this season reads 3 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats with 12 goals scored and 15 conceded.
Worringly, two of those defeats have come in Town's last two home fixtures against Wycombe Wanderers and York City prior to which they had gone five unbeaten at Sixfields and looked to be getting back to the type of form which pushed Aidy Boothroyd's side into the play-off places last season.
With Andy King having made some progress on sorting out awayday problems it isn't a time for home form to take a nosedive with six out of the next eight League Two fixtures on their own patch.
