Gillingham 0-1 Northampton
A goal from Northampton's Andy Kirk was enough to give his side victory at the expense of Gillingham.
Gills player Darren Randolph gifted the Cobblers a goal midway through the first half.
The goalkeeper failed to deal with Chris Doig's high cross and Kirk pounced to prod home after picking James Quinn's rebounded effort.
Andrew Crofts came close for the home side but his header was brilliantly saved by Mark Bunn.
