Michael Bostwick will hope to push back into Stevenage’s starting line-up for Saturday’s Sky Bet League Two clash with Northampton.

Experienced centre-back Bostwick came off the bench in last weekend’s 1-1 draw at Gillingham.

Danny Rose should continue up front having notched the solitary goal for Steve Evans’ side.

Jordan Roberts claimed the winner in Tuesday’s 1-0 EFL Trophy victory over Tottenham Under-21s and will be another player itching for more action.

Top scorer Sam Hoskins is a doubt for Northampton.

The 11-goal striker missed last weekend’s Leyton Orient trip due to a knock and will be assessed late on.

Shaun McWilliams could be fit to feature after missing Tuesday’s EFL Trophy clash with Arsenal Under-21s.

Ben Fox will start his three-match suspension.
