REF’s picks

York City enter this fixture in far superior scoring touch and should comfortably breach a struggling Northampton backline twice at home. Backing the hosts to score over 1.5 goals captures their attacking momentum against an opponent struggling for defensive consistency on the road.

1. 1York have put impressive multi-goal displays past sides like Swindon and Gillingham recently.
2. 2Northampton's defensive frailties away from home leave them vulnerable to wave after wave of pressure.
3. 3A sluggish start or an early tactical stall from the hosts could keep the scoreline tight during the opening exchanges.
