Kyle Edwards and Tyrese Fornah both netted their first Northampton goals before half-time, and the hosts then saw it out with few alarms. Here are our player ratings from Sixfields...
1. Lee Burge
His 99th appearance for the club and his services were rarely required en route to a clean sheet, though did keep his wits about him when reacting sharply to tip over McNeilly's second half effort. He's keeping Fitzsimons honest with these performances... 7.5 Photo: Pete Norton
2. Jordan Willis
Totally untroubled and unruffled before injury ended his night prematurely. Hopefully it was just a precaution because he's an extremely useful and valuable member of Nolan's squad, as proven by the last four days... 7.5 Photo: Pete Norton
3. Max Dyche
First start in more than two months and he slotted back in as if he was never away. Dominant and commanding in the middle centre-back role and snuffed out numerous Wycombe attacks. His performance on Saturday and then again here might be enough to win his place back permanently... 8 Photo: Pete Norton
4. Jordan Thorniley
Mostly went unnoticed which is no bad thing for a centre-back. Efficient and tidy and helped restrict Wycombe to few sights of Burge's goal... 7.5 Photo: Pete Norton
