Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Swindon Town and Crewe Alexandra square off against each other at County Ground in what is expected to be an interesting League Two game. The Robins are on a three-game winning run at home ground and they are seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s encounter. Goalkeeper Daniel Barden is rated doubtful for the home side after limping off with injury in the last league match.
The Railwaymen, on the other hand, have been scoring goals for fun of late, with the team beating both Carlisle United and Bromley in the last two league matches. As Crewe are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Defender James Connolly is unlikely to feature for the visitors after limping off with injury in the triumph over Bromley at the weekend.
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.
