  1. SECOND HALVESpublished at 20:47 BST 15 April

    League One

    Ready to go again?

    Things are just getting back underway at Kenilworth Road, where Northampton will try to restore their relegation-saving lead, while the action in Wimbledon won't be far behind.

  2. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:36 BST 15 April

    AFC Wimbledon 0-0 Stockport

    Goalkeepers making the difference to keep it goalless at the break.

    Stockport's Corey Addai has made four saves - most notably against a sharp strike into the corner from James Tilley - while Nathan Bishop has stopped three for the Dons.

    The visitors have plenty of the ball but both sides are even on total shots.

    Surely, neither will want to go home sharing the spoils given their ambitions at both ends of the table.

  3. 'We are seeing more aggression from Northampton'published at 20:35 BST 15 April

    HT: Luton 1-1 Northampton

    Peter Walton
    Former Premier League referee on BBC Radio Northampton

    They have lacked that little bit of aggression this season, I think we are seeing a bit more of that tonight.

    It is really, really important that the Northampton players show the fans that they still care.

    They started slowly but Luton are back on top now though without creating too much. They have been the better side but they are playing at 80% really, I think.

    One or two of them need to step up a bit more, they will want to create a few more chances, that is for sure.

  5. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:32 BST 15 April

    Luton 1-1 Northampton

    Northampton relegated as things stand after Liam Walsh's equaliser for Luton.

    The visitors took the lead after Sam Hoskins lobbed a beauty over the Luton keeper after a scrappy start from the hosts.

    But it wasn't to last as the EFL trophy winners went to work hunting for a leveller until they finally found it through a thunderous strike from an in-form Liam Walsh.

    Rotherham have already booked their place in League Two next season. Are Northampton on their way to join them in another 45 minutes or so?

  6. 'Luton needed that'published at 20:31 BST 15 April

    Luton 1-1 Northampton

    Geoff Doyle
    Commentator on BBC Three Counties Radio

    A great goal, and with his wrong foot as well. Liam Walsh smashed it brilliantly, he has done so well. He has spoke about redemption after some of the games earlier this season where he was sent off.

    Now he is slowly becoming one of the most popular names in this team. Luton really needed that.

    GOAL: Luton 1-1 Northamptonpublished at 20:28 BST 15 April

    Liam Walsh (34 mins)

    They went looking for it.

    The hosts were starting to up the tempo following that opening goal from Northampton to earn a handful of corners.

    Their latest doesn't cause much trouble but Northampton are sloppy in their clearance, seeing it worked to Liam Walsh just outside the box with a path to goal.

    He thunders it home for the leveller.

    The 'we are staying up' chants will quieten now, that's for sure.

  8. GREAT SAVES!published at 20:25 BST 15 April

    AFC Wimbledon 0-0 Stockport

    This game has warmed up now and the keepers are really having to earn their wage.

    James Tilley strikes in a fantastic effort to the left corner but Stockport stopper Corey Addai does well to deny the hosts.

    The ball is then worked up the other end for Adama Sidibeh to fire in at the other end but Nathan Bishop puts his gloves to use to keep it goalless.

  9. 'Something not quite right'published at 20:23 BST 15 April

    Something isn't quite right tonight compared to the weekend. Luton need to find a way around this.

  10. 'We are staying up sing the away fans'published at 20:21 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-1 Northampton

    Tim Oglethorpe
    BBC Radio Northampton commentator

    The away fans are singing, 'We are staying up'.

    That is something you normally sing when you are going to stay in the league which even despite leading here tonight probably isn't something Northampton are going to do.

  11. 'Hoskins came from nowhere'published at 20:20 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-1 Northampton

    Peter Walton
    Former Premier League referee on BBC Radio Northampton

    The away fans are going crazy. The goal was almost in slow motion.

    Sam Hoskins came from nowhere. He had nothing to do really, he has just lobbed it perfectly.

  12. goal

    GOAL: Luton 0-1 Northamptonpublished at 20:17 BST 15 April

    Sam Hoskins (31 mins)

    Big stuff from Sam Hoskins on a big night.

    Another long pass from the keeper makes it's way to Tom Eaves, who holds off the defenders to get the ball across to Hoskins.

    Luton stopper Josh Keeley comes off his line to try and deal with it but the winger just lifts it above the keeper to see it arc into the net.

    Lovely.

    AFC Wimbledon 0-0 Stockport

    Odin Bailey sends a ball wayward for Stockport before his team-mates block out a threatening strike from Callum Maycock.

  14. Postpublished at 20:13 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-0 Northampton

    Another free-kick for Luton in a promising area, this time on the right for Liam Walsh to whip in.

    The midfielder curls it but only hits the wall and Luton can't recycle the ball to apply more pressure.

  15. 'Best chance of the night for Luton'published at 20:12 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-0 Northampton

    Simon Oxley

    That is the best chance of the game. The Northampton goalkeeper was scrambling, he wasn't going to get there. He is lucky it just clipped the post.

  16. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:12 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-0 Northampton

    Kasey Palmer's free-kick whirls through the air, heading for the top left corner for a beautiful opener for Luton but is just a few inches too far wide to end up ricocheting with the near post.

    A turning point for the hosts?

  17. Postpublished at 20:09 BST 15 April

    AFC Wimbledon 0-0 Stockport

    Malik Mothersille takes Stockport's first shot but like the Dons' preceding attempts on target, it doesn't do anything to really challenge the keeper.

    All pretty mild at the moment.

  18. Postpublished at 20:07 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-0 Northampton

    Tyrese Fornah does well to avoid the swarming Luton defenders but he follows it up with poor attempt.

    The hosts then try for a quick counter but can't keep it in.

    Pretty shaky stuff from Luton so far but Northampton will want to make sure they capitalise quickly before the promotion chasers find their footing.

  19. 'Luton need to win tonight'published at 20:05 BST 15 April

    Luton 0-0 Northampton

    Tim Oglethorpe
    BBC Radio Northampton commentator

    Luton need a win tonight for their play-off push, they will be happy with the win at the weekend but this is a club that you imagine have all eyes on a return to the premier league. That is going to be important to them.

    AFC Wimbledon 0-0 Stockport

    Stockport are dominating possession but it's AFC Wimbledon who are getting their shots in.

    They've took aim twice through Alistair Smith and Aron Sasu but both times were denied by the Corey Addai.
