Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Monday’s football game at VBS Community Stadium pits together Sutton and Swindon Town, the hosts are desperate to escape the relegation zone and their three-game winning run in the League Two is surely fuelling fans with optimism ahead of the visit of Swindon. A man to watch in the home team will be talented forward Oliver Sanderson, who scored a brace in a 2-1 win over Salford City.
The Robins, on the other hand, did well to beat Notts County at home in their last league match, but seeing that the in-form hosts are desperate to secure the League Two survival, home win should be considered this time out. Barring any fresh injury worries, Galvin Gunning is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Magpies on Friday. In their last meeting at the venue Sutton defeated Swindon 2-1.
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.
