Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Following three consecutive league defeats, Swindon Town will look to get back on course in the League Two when they take on Wrexham on Matchday 24. The Robins have been flying pretty low of late and they face yet another tough challenge against the promotion hopefuls. As first-choice goalkeeper Murphy Mahoney limped off with injury in the last league match, Lewis Ward is likely to step up.
Wrexham, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Colchester and Newport and we predict that they will take advantage of Swindon Town’s shaky defence. Last time out the two sides played out a thrilling 5-5 draw and yet another high-scoring game is on the horizon. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Wiltshire. The opposition back-line should have Elliot Lee at bay.
Highlighted Team (Swindon):
Founded by Reverend William Pitt of Liddington in 1879, Swindon Town are an English football club which compete in the League Two. The Robins welcome their rivals at County Ground, the stadium which can hold up to 15,728 spectators (all-seated), with the team wearing red shirts and white shorts when playing at home.
Gray is the dominant colour of the club which turned professional in 1894. Oxford United are considered the team’s main rivals, but the Robins have rivalries with Bristol City, Bristol Rovers, and Reading as well. In 1969 Swindon Town did remarkably well to win the English League Cup, with the team beating Arsenal 3-1 in the title game at Wembley Stadium.
John Trollope is the club’s player with most appearances as he played 889 first-team games from 1960 to 1980. Premier League attacker Charlie Austin is one of the most notable footballers who played for Swindon Town in the past.
