Match Facts
Northampton Town are looking to complete a league double over Cheltenham Town for the first time since the 2008-09 campaign.
None of the 33 league meetings between Northampton and Cheltenham have ended goalless, with 11 of the last 14 games between the teams seeing both sides score.
Northampton have won two of their last eight league games on New Year’s Day (D2 L4), both on home soil against Dagenham and Redbridge in 2013 and Stevenage in 2020.
Cheltenham Town have won just two of 10 Football League games on New Year’s Day (D2 L6), though both wins were away, in 2002 vs Torquay and 2019 vs Yeovil.
