Swansea City prepare to entertain Northampton Town at Vetch Field on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Swans are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 3 of the 22 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vetch Field was less than a year ago, in April 2004, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a League Division Three match.
