PREVIEW: Swindon Town vs Cambridge United

Swindon Town find themselves needing to improve their home form again as Tuesday night's 2-1 loss at home to Coventry means they have won only one game from five in Wiltshire this season.

The County Ground, which was this week renamed to The Energy Check County Ground due to the club selling their stadium naming rights, has been far from a fortress for Town so far this campaign.

A 3-2 win over Stevenage is the only three points they've picked up so far on home soil and David Flitcroft's next opportunity to put that right is tomorrow (Saturday).

Visitors Cambridge sit 10th in League Two currently, one place above Swindon, but the two are level on 16 points.

United have won three of their last four games, with their most recent result being a 3-0 win over Forest Green at home. 

They have a hit-and-miss away record though, as they have won two away from the University city and lost the other three.

In terms of team news, Swindon have appealed the red card shown to midfielder James Dunne on Tuesday, but boss Flitcroft has not disclosed whether that has been won or lost.

If it has been lost, Town will be without Dunne for three games. 

Chris Hussey looks set to miss out for the second game running which could mean that Matty Taylor fills in at left-back again. Dion Conroy will remain unavailable for the forseeable future.

Neither of Kyle Knoyle and Johnny Goddard have played since their respective injuries but the pair both had a behind-closed-doors friendly against Bristol City in the week to gain match fitness. 

Swindon and Cambridge have not played each other in 15 years, with the last game coming at the Abbey in April 2002. Town won 2-1, and the last game at the County Ground was a 2-0 victory in October 2001.
