Cobblers are still waiting to hear back from the physio regarding the latest injuries suffered by Matt Dibley-Dias and Tariqe Fosu.

Dibley-Dias made his long-awaited return as a second-half substitute in last Monday’s derby victory over Peterborough United, but he did not feature in the squad that travelled to Rotherham at the weekend.

Fosu was also absent from the 18 that were involved at the New York Stadium, and assistant manager Marc Richards confirmed both players have picked up injuries. "Matt came back against Peterborough but he's probably suffered a small setback,” said the former Town striker. “We need to wait for the physio’s report on him.
