Swindon’s poor home form continued on Boxing day as they were torn apart at the County Ground by league leaders Luton. So this is another dodgy home game for them as they play host to second-placed Notts County on the weekend.

Notts CountySwindon Form
The Robins have lost their last three home games on the trot now in the top flight and they have failed to score in two of those three. They were smashed 5-0 at home by Luton on Tuesday and that’s a total of nine goals they have conceded in their last three home games. They have conceded at least two goals in three of their last four home fixtures. So they are going to be vulnerable in this one. Overall they have recorded a poor W3 D2 L7 record at home this season in the league and they have conceded at an average of two goals per game at the County Ground. They have averaged just over a goal per game so over 2.5 goals is probably a good option.
Notts County Form
County are now unbeaten in their last ten league games in what has been a great run from them (W4 D6). They posted a big 4-1 away win at Morecambe on Boxing Day and they are unbeaten in five away games now, that win at Morecambe snapping a four match sequence of draws on the road, all of them 1-1 scorelines. Overall the Magpies are W5 D4 L3 for the season on their travels and they scored an average of 1.5 goals per away game. They haven’t managed a clean sheet in any of their last seven away games though so both teams to score could offer value. They have driven in just over two thirds of their away goals in the second half of their away games this season.
Head to Head News
County took a 1-0 home win over Swindon earlier in the season. Both teams have actually failed to score in each of the last seven meetings between the two clubs Swindon have won their last two home games against the Magpies and are undefeated in three at home against them. From the three previous League Two contests, County are slightly ahead with a W1 D2 record.
