Northampton Manager Gary Johnson will allow young professionals Greg Kaziboni and Paul Walker to play in a friendly at AFC Totton this weekend.
The two former Apprentices signed professional contracts this summer and both now look set for potential loan deals.
The duo will be hoping to show Manager Gary Johnson that they can compete for a spot in his first team and if the pair do find a temporary football club they will be able to add vital playing experience to their stakes for a place.
The Cobblers open up the new season against Accrington Stanley on 6 August at Sixfields.
