The Cobblers have traditionally been one of few teams who have played away in a competitive fixture to all of the other Premier League and Football League clubs. This statistic will be true again as soon as we travel to Salford City for our scheduled 2019/20 fixture. Prior to this we have never met Salford in any competitive fixture at all. It has been quite a while since we visited some of the current league clubs, all the details are below along with highlights from the more recent visits.
