Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Swindon Town will look to make amends for back-to-back losses to Walsall and Grimsby Town when they face Morecambe on the last day of the season. The Robins head into the last game of the season with the lack of motivation, but they surely want to finish the process in style. Both Rushian Hepburn-Murphy and Zack Elbouzedi are pushing for recalls to the starting XI after the duo came off the bench in the last league match.
The Shrimps, on the other hand, are eager to put an end to their four-game losing run, but given their under-par performance in a 2-1 loss to rock-bottom Forest Green, home win should definitely be considered. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team, experienced midfielder Yann Songo’o should return to the starting eleven. In their last meeting at the venue Swindon defeated Morecambe 3-1.
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.
