Our prediction for this League 2 match:
AFC Wimbledon play host to Swindon Town at their Cherry Red Records Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting League Two game. The Dons aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Chesterfield and they are seen as hot favourites to win the Boxing Day clash. As important attacker Omar Bugiel is back from suspension, home win should definitely be considered.
The Robins, on the other hand, have been struggling on the travels of late. Considering that Swindon Town have suffered four of their last five away games, we believe that there is a big value in betting on AFC Wimbledon. In their last meeting at the venue AFC Wimbledon rolled over Swindon Town 4-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. A man to watch in the away team will be Kabongo Tshimanga, who scored a brace in a 3-1 win over Grimsby Town at the weekend.
