Cobblers reached this stage of the competition with a 3-0 win at Chippenham Town on Sunday while County progressed in much more dramatic fashion, Ben Turner scoring an injury-time winner in a 3-2 victory at Ebbsfleet United on Saturday.

In the previous round, Ardley's team edged past Northern Premier League outfit Belper Town 2-1.

Northampton played Notts County as recently as April of this year when Sam Hoskins and Daniel Powell netted in a 2-2 draw. The last meeting between the two at the PTS Stadium ended goalless last September.
