It’s now three draws and a defeat from four matches for Jimmy Dean’s men. They took the lead at the Bee Arena through in-form Josh Moreman early in the game, but the visitors equalised from the penalty spot before the break and there was no further scoring in front of a crowd of 178.

Yaxley’s scheduled game in Division One Central at Daventry Town was postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.
