TEAM NEWS

Brian Jensen (thumb), Dean Leacock (groin), Lanre Oyebanjo (hamstring), Conor Henderson (ankle), Matt Harrold (ankle) and Josh Simpson (hamstring) are all out through injury while Joe Walsh is banned and Darren Ward unable to play against his parent club.

Swindon playmaker Massimo Luongo is a doubt because of a groin strain.


Reds have won just once on the road this season at Barnsley on the opening day of the campaign. Swindon have only lost two League games at home but they have been beaten three times in their last four outings.THE FORM GUIDE 


VIEW FROM THE BENCH

: "They are the best footballing side in the division with a certain way of playing. We have been working all week on that and there is more belief now having won so well and played so well last week. But it's going to be tough, especially with eight players missing."Dean Saunders


DID YOU KNOW?

Swindon boss Mark Cooper was linked with the vacancy at Barnsley earlier this week but Cooper has refused to discuss any approach.

  

WE’VE MET BEFORE?

This will be the tenth meeting between the teams and to date Reds have won two, drawn four and lost three. 

We did beat Swindon 1-0 on the second Saturday of the season back in August.
