This is a League Two meeting between two teams who have both had a mixed time of it lately. CheckLive have no favourite named for this one, so there is no win-probability figure to cite; it looks a genuinely close contest, with a draw a very real possibility. League points are on the line, and neither side goes in with any real momentum.
Swindon Town's recent results include a goalless draw with Northampton Town and a 4-1 win over Forest Green in a friendly, but also defeats to Cardiff City and Bristol City. Cheltenham Town beat Rotherham United 2-1 last time out, yet have lost to Colchester United, Milton Keynes Dons and Charlton Athletic in their other recent matches. With a lot of friendly results mixed in, it is hard to draw firm conclusions from form.
The head-to-head is tight: four previous meetings, with two Swindon wins, one draw and one Cheltenham win. The most recent encounter, in League Two, saw Swindon Town win 0-2. The key question is which defence can hold up, as both sides have been generous at the back recently.
