Pools are searching for their first win of the season and will be looking to make amends following a 4-0 defeat in the Carabao Cup against Blackburn Rovers in midweek.
Paul Hartley made seven changes to the side who drew with AFC Wimbledon last time out in the league and here, at The Mail, we predict our starting XI at Sixfields with the Pools boss set to ring the changes once more.
