Recent respective form guides

Swindon Town's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Robins have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Leicester City's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Foxes's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 10 goals for and 9 against.

Swindon Town find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 16 points from their 14 matches. Leicester City are leading the way in the Coca-Cola League One, with their 15 games giving them a return of 31 points.
