Swindon Town form and stats

When playing at home in the League Two, Swindon Town have managed 2 wins, 4 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 9 games.

Swindon are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Barrow. Midfield player Payne got a match rating of 7.11 in that game, the max score being 10. Payne hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 48 successful passes (of 60 total).

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Leyton Orient.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Swindon Town handle that role? We have found eleven games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are four wins, four draws and three defeats.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Swindon, as the League Two home game vs Northampton Town is only three days away.

Swindon has scored 10 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 11 goals have been conceded.

Stevenage form and stats

There's been little loot from Stevenage's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 10 away games in the League Two. Stevenage only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws.

Stevenage have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 264 minutes ago. Norris was the goal scorer.

Stevenage lost away at Salford City (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Goalkeeper Smith got the top player rating of the team with 7.31/10. Smith stopped the opponent with five saves.

A 0-2 loss hosting Carlisle United before that.

Stevenage are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, five draws and nine defeats. From a total of 15 matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Stevenage manager Tisdale as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Forest Green Rovers.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Stevenage as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. For Stevenage, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. Stevenage has visited these top teams three times, and 3 of 3 has ended with 2 goals or more!

Head 2 Head
