Northampton Town and Leeds United meet again in front of the Setanta Sports cameras for this FA Cup first round replay.
In the first game Northampton took an early lead through Scott McGleish, on the half hour mark The Cobblers were reduced to ten men when Giles Coke was sent off for two bookable offences.
Leeds equalised soon after when Andy Robinson converted a penalty kick after a foul on Jonny Howson.
Leeds dominated proceedings but couldn`t break down a very resolute Northampton defence.
The victors will once again be in front of the live TV cameras in the second round for a tie at Conference pace setters Histon Town.

Northampton
Giles Coke will probably return after serving his one match ban for his sending off in the first game.
Colin Larkin (thigh), Adebayo Akinfenwa (calf), Abdul Osman (knee) and Chris Doig (hamstring) are all out.
Man to watch: Leon Constantine
Will be out to prove a point against his old employee`s after being allowed to leave Leeds in the summer. Didn`t have much chance in the first game with Northampton spending most of the game defending
Leeds
The Whites will probably make quite a few changes for the FA Cup if the League Cup and Johnstone`s Paint Trophy are anything to go by

Snodgrass has impressed in his two starts recently and was man of the match in the original tie for Leeds.
