Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Saturday’s football game at County Ground pits together Swindon Town and Carlisle United, the two bottom-table sides. The Robins recorded their first win of the season on Matchday 6, with the team crushing Newport County 4-0 and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Carlisle. As attacking partnership of Paul Glatzel and Kabongo Tshimanga has been in a perfect working order of late, home win should be considered.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, are on a four-game losing run in the League Two and given their poor defensive display in a 3-2 loss to Fleetwood Town, we are tempted to place our bets on Swindon Town. There are no fresh injury concerns in the visiting team, while the opposition back-line should have Charlie Wyke at bay as the 31-year-old scored a brace in the last league fixture.
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.
