Forest Green Rovers form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first League Two game of the season here at The New Lawn. Last season these fans witnessed 5 wins, 2 draws and 16 losses from Forest Green Rovers's 23 home games.

A good away victory last time out for Forest Green Rovers, who won 1-0 against Harrogate Town (placed 12th).

Before that game, a home loss in the Carabao Cup against Portsmouth.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the League Two game versus Newport County in only four days. This game is also played here at The New Lawn.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Forest Green Rovers at home in the league. 0 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Swindon Town form and stats

Let's have a look at how Swindon Town performed last season in the League Two: They landed a 10th position in the league table after playing out 16 victories, 13 draws and 17 defeats. In total they scored 61 and conceded {55 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 7 and lost 9 with 30/31 goals scored/conceded.

Swindon Town played 2-2 against Crewe Alexandra in their previous match. It looked so good for Swindon vs Crewe Alexandra, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw. As mentioned above, Swindon Town drew the match against Crewe Alexandra. Manager Flynn brought on Young to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

A loss, in the Carabao Cup away at Peterborough United (after extra-time, 4-1 on penalties), before that.

Swindon have another match away in just four days, a League Two match versus Wrexham. A hard fixture list for the visitors!

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Forest Green Rovers three wins, two draws and Swindon Town five victories. As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), eight games had two or less.
