Can Cobblers cope with greater expectations?

Northampton entertain Aldershot at Sixfields on Friday night Following Tuesday's hammering of Accrington Stanley, Ian Sampson attemped to keep feet on the ground, insisting that a top-half finish remained his priority for the season. But Town, who now lie just one place outside of the play-offs, will go into the game as favourites to take all three points, bringing a different kind of pressure to bear on Sampson's squad. Aldershot lie two points behind their hosts on Friday but have three games in hand. They scored two late goals when the teams met in November to take the points after Northampton had led for much of the game.
