Accrington
Tuesday’s football game at County Ground pits together Swindon Town and Accrington Town, the two mid-table sides. Swindon aim to bounce back from a 3-2 loss to Mansfield Town and you should know that they are eyeing their tenth home win of the process. Gavin Gunning is unlikely to make changes to the team that faced the promotion-chasing Yellows.
The Accy Stanley, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last four league matches. As Accrington have little to play for in the season finale, we are tempted to bet on the home side this time out. Nigeria forward Korede Adedoyin is widely expected to return to the starting XI, with Jake Bickerstaff likely to drop to the bench. In the first half of the season Swindon defeated Accrington 4-3 at the Wham Stadium and yet another high-scoring game is on the cards.
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.
