Swindon Town – Bristol Rovers

Swindon Town will host a top‑flight Bristol Rovers side that sit second in the table with 12 points from six games, while the home team linger in ninth place on 10 points. The Robins have won four of their six fixtures and boast a +4 goal difference (12‑8), whereas Swindon’s three wins, a draw and two defeats have left them with a –2 margin (8‑10). The gap in form is stark, but Swindon’s recent unbeaten run of one match could give them a glimmer of confidence as they look to close the gap on the leaders. A win for the home side would see them climb out of the lower half of the table, while a loss would cement Bristol Rovers’ grip on the promotion race.
