Oldham Athletic will be aiming to record from a 2-1 defeat to Colchester when they face Swindon Town in the League Two round 3. The Latics have shown encouraging form at home, winning 50% of their last four matches at Boundary Park and averaging 1.75 goals per game during that spell. They have also kept clean sheets in half of those games. However, defensive reshuffling will be required, with Gus Scott-Morriss suspended after the weekend defeat. Lewis Temple is expected to step into the back line as Oldham search for a positive response.
Swindon Town, meanwhile, enter this clash after edging Cheltenham 2-1 despite managing only five goal attempts. The Robins have struggled badly on their travels, winning none of their last six away matches and scoring just 0.67 goals per game across that stretch. Their defensive record is even more concerning, with Swindon conceding 2.67 goals per game in their last six away outings. Palmer and Millard are both pushing for a starting berth as the visitors look to improve their fortunes on the road.
As Swindon are not regarded as good travellers, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (Swindon's away games have averaged 3.33 goals across their last six).
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 29 August 2026 at 15:00.
