With Northampton and Chelsea U21s drawing 2-2 after 90 minutes it means the Dons can not be over taken for a top two spot.
This means with Oxford and Chelsea U21s facing each other in their final group stage match on Nov 7th and being three points behind Alexander’s side the Northampton match is not a do or die fixture.
The Dons should pretty much know before they face the Cobblers on Nov 21st where they’ll finish.
Top spot should mean a home tie in the next phase of the competition.
