Hartlepool United v Northampton Town: Team news, Luke James back for Pools
Luke James returned after missing last week's 2-1 defeat at Luton Town with a thigh problem, with Lewis Hawkins the man to make way.
With Hawkins moving down to the bench that meant Rakish Bingham was left out of the match-day 18.
