Bristol Rovers take on Swindon Town in what could be a challenging encounter for the home side. Given the Pirates' struggles up front, we predict a 2-1 win for the Robins. The hosts come off a heavy 4-0 defeat to Barnet and are struggling for form, winning just 20% of their last five matches. Their attack has been blunt, scoring only 0.6 goals per game, while conceding 1.8 per match. Manager Darrell Clarke may make changes, with Forde and Issaka pushing for starting roles.
Swindon, in contrast, are in fine form with 60% wins in their last five matches and an average of 3 goals per game away from home. Defensively, they have conceded just 0.75 goals per away match recently, making them tough to break down. Head-to-head, Swindon have won six of the last 14 meetings, and over 2.5 goals has been seen in 64% of encounters. All Minturn, Smith, and Wilson-Brown remain in the recovery room, but the trio should not be sorely missed in Saturday's clash.
Given Swindon's superior form and Bristol Rovers’ struggles, we believe that there is big value in betting on Away Win, with additional value on Over 2.5 (64% H2H) goals and Swindon to Score First.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 13 December 2025 at 12:30.
