As Northampton and Forest Green prepare to meet again, the memory of Northampton's 1-0 win in their League Two match from 4 years ago still lingers. Northampton's recent form has been disappointing, with consecutive defeats to Crawley Town and Swindon Town.

Forest Green, by contrast, enter the match on a positive note, having secured a victory over Colchester in their last outing, pushing their unbeaten streak to five games. Lately, their defensive efforts have been solid, achieving three clean sheets in succession.
This League Two clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Northampton and Forest Green. Northampton’s top finisher Sam Hoskins and Jon Guthrie have played important roles in ensuring their attack, with Aidy Boothroyd steering the side, remains effective. Hoskins has already scored eight goals in League Two this season. Northampton have also relied on Kion Etete, Paul Lewis and Fraser Horsfall to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
Meanwhile, Forest Green’s offensive unit has leaned on Jamille Matt, their main scorer, and Mathew Stevens, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Matt has emerged as Forest Green’s leading scorer in League Two this season, netting fifteen goals. Nicky Cadden, Jack Aitchison and Jake Young have supported the attack well, combining for important goals and assists throughout the campaign.
