Northampton travel to take on Millwall at The Den on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 27 out of 38 times.
The last time the two teams met at Millwall was back in December 2000, over five years ago, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4 - 1 thriller, in a (Associate Members) match.
