Doncaster Rovers form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at The Keepmoat Stadium as Doncaster Rovers have scored 17 goals to get 17 points from 8 games. The overall stats in the League One are 5-2-1 (wins-draws-losses). Hopes of three in a row are alive for Doncaster after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Doncaster's previous game was a League One match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Gillingham (placed 12th). The home side are looking to build on that result. A strong away win before that one, visiting Northampton Town and winning 2-0.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Doncaster as they are travelling to their away game against Burton Albion in the League One. That match is four days after this one.
The Doncaster Rovers manager D. Moore has got the team scoring with 17 from 8 home games in the league. 9 goals have been conceded.
Swindon Town form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Swindon Town, who have the most conceded goals (33) in League One, so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-6 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Swindon Town as they have recorded three consecutive losses. Swindon Town has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Swindon Town aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 232 league minutes without a goal. T. Smith was the last player to find the net.
The manager R. Wellens was unhappy after their last game, a League One match played at their home ground The Energy Check County Ground. Swindon Town suffered a 0-1 loss to Fleetwood Town (placed 9th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Gillingham wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Charlton Athletic in just four days.
Swindon have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. Swindon are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 11 goals in these matches.
