Swindon are struggling just a bit at the moment as they have taken three defeats in their last four games. That has seen them slide down the table and the goals have all dried up for them. Will they be able to find any solace on home soil as they host Stevenage? That’s going to be a big ask for them because Stevenage have had a pretty decent season with just the one defeat so far. So they aren’t going to be a pushover at the County Ground. Swindon are 7/5 at bet356 to take the win, with Stevenage at 2/1.

Swindon
StevenageSwindon Form:
The Robins are just sliding a bit at the moment and it is a lack of goals which has been hurting them. They have lost three of their last four and they managed just the one goal across those three defeats. Worryingly two of those defeats were at home which means that they are still looking for their first win of the season at the County Ground, with just the one point picked up from their three games there this season. This would be something therefore if they were to get returns out of this, but their home point did come against current league leaders Exeter.
Stevenage Form:
Stevenage have only lost once this season and that was in a good competitive game against Lincoln who are also going well. Boro have posted a W3 D3 L1 record so far this season and they are on a two match winning streak out on the road, unbeaten in their three games away from home this season. Both of their away wins in League Two this season have been by a 1-0 scoreline so there is a little trend there. They have scored exactly one goal in five of their seven games this season.
Head to Head News:
Swindon do have a bit of home form going against Stevenage. They are unbeaten in their last four at the County Ground against them with a W3 D1 record and each of the wins in that sequence came with a clean sheet. This will be the first league meeting between the two since the 2013/14 League One season when the two of them traded home wins. The overall head to head stands in favour of Swindon who are 4-2 up with the one draw.
Top Betting Tips:
Swindon have won three of their last four league games against Boro and they may have been worth a flutter to win if they had produced anything at home this season. They haven’t though so can’t be trusted enough to win, but they may be able to pick up a point out of this one with Stevenage not having been prolific on the road. The draw at 13/5 has appeal.
