Boothroyd: 'Northampton, Bradford evenly matched'

Northampton Town manager Aidy Boothroyd has said that his side is "very evenly matched" with today's League Two playoff final opponents Bradford City.

The pair will contest for a place in League One in front of an expected nearly-full Wembley this afternoon.

Ahead of the match Boothroyd told BBC Radio Northampton: "I think we're very evenly matched with Bradford. We're both very organised, both good on restarts and both have got goals in the team.

"We respect them but we think we can win."

Both Northampton and Bradford beat sides who finished above them in the final league table in the playoff semi-finals.

Bottom seed Bradford saw off Burton Albion while Northampton beat Cheltenham Town.
