Swindon Town vs Cheltenham Town is a West Country League Two meeting at the County Ground on Saturday at 3pm, with the hosts fancied to claim a first win of the season.
Swindon opened with a goalless draw while Cheltenham began with a win, in what looks a competitive clash. Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record below.
Premium Tips
Andy sides with Swindon, whose home form should give them the edge in a lively-looking contest.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Swindon Town to win and both teams to score | 13/5 | Swindon are fancied as one of League Two’s top-seven contenders this season, and home advantage at the County Ground should count for plenty against a Cheltenham side still finding its feet despite an opening win. The Robins were disciplined but toothless in a goalless draw at Northampton, and the home crowd will be demanding more end product this weekend, so expect Swindon to push forward with real intent. Cheltenham, though, carry a genuine away threat of their own, and this fixture rarely stays tight: recent meetings have produced a 3-3 thriller and several two-goal margins. A home win with goals at both ends looks the value angle. |
| Aaron Drinan to score anytime and Andi Weimann over 0.5 shots on target | 9/4 | This one leans on two individual threats rather than the scoreline. Aaron Drinan spearheads the Swindon attack and is exactly the type of poacher who can nick a goal even in a scrappy game, making him a solid anytime-scorer shout as the hosts push for a first win. At the other end, Andi Weimann is Cheltenham’s most experienced forward, a player who consistently gets shots away regardless of the result, and he’ll look to build on an encouraging opening-day win over Rotherham. With both sides likely to create chances in an open contest, backing these two key men to influence the game individually looks sound value alongside the main markets. |

How Swindon Town go into the game
Swindon opened with a disciplined but uninspiring 0-0 draw at Northampton, a solid point on the road. The County Ground faithful will want more goals and endeavour from their side this weekend.
As one of the fancied sides for a top-seven finish, Swindon will see this as a game to win. Home advantage makes them worthy favourites.
How Cheltenham Town go into the game
Cheltenham got off to a winning start, beating Rotherham 2-1 to lift the mood after a difficult recent history. That victory will breed belief heading into a tricky away trip.
The Robins will need to be at their best against a Swindon side smarting from a low-key opener. A repeat of last week’s cutting edge would give them a chance.
