Northampton Town are welcoming Swindon Town for another important game after their 1-2 result against 6th-placed Plymouth Argyle.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Northampton Town form and stats
Three League One home games done for Northampton Town, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Northampton with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Shrewsbury Town game, 31 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Northampton are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at PTS ACADEMY STADIUM, having lost their two previous games here.
Northampton lost their last game at Plymouth Argyle (placed 6th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Northampton lost 0-2 at home to Peterborough United.
This is expected to be a close game, with Northampton Town perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Northampton as a small favourite), we find 16 games. Northampton Town has won ten of these, drawn two and lost four.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Northampton, as the League One home game vs Charlton Athletic is only four days away.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Northampton here at PTS ACADEMY STADIUM in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (2 from 3 games). Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Northampton with 6 goals conceded in these matches.
Swindon Town form and stats
No League One points yet away for Swindon Town, from their first 2 matches. Recent form does not give Swindon much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Northampton Town will be a tough nut to crack. Swindon seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
The attacking players of Swindon have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 264 minutes.
Swindon might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Sunderland proved too strong as Swindon Town slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at The Energy Check County Ground. A 0-1 loss hosting AFC Wimbledon before that.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 14 similar matches played by Swindon Town in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Swindon, three draws and six defeats.
Swindon has another fixture away, a League One game, against Oxford United in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
1 goal so far away for Swindon Town, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.
