Scunthorpe, Rochdale, Bradford City, Harrogate, Crawley, Barrow and Carlisle are 7 matches where I expect the lads to definitely stay unbeaten by the end of the season, most likely winning at least 5 and securing 15-17 points from those matches alone. The other 7 are against solid opposition, most in the top 6 of the League currently and those could go either way, hope for at least 10 points from those 7 the way JB has the boys playing recently.
We could always lose to Scunthorpe at home and beat Northampton away but these are some of my general predictions/expectations for those remaining 14 matches, going by the quality of opponents and the moment we are facing them (as someone already said, motivation should be low for a team which is secure and out of promotion race when facing our lads who might need crucial points in such a matchup).
