Fleetwood Town vs Swindon Predictions

Goal-Fest Likely as Swindon Head to Fleetwood

Swindon have scored two or more goals in ten of their 15 League Two games this season and the best bet may well be that both teams score when they visit Fleetwood at Highbury Stadium on Saturday.

Both teams have won more games than they’ve lost this season, but Swindon, with nine wins and four defeats, sit second in the league, while Fleetwood are 13th having won six and lost five of their 15 games.

Fleetwood’s recent form in League Two has been up and down, with three wins, one draw and two defeats in their last six games. They have enjoyed three straight successes at home, but Swindon won their last outing, beating Tranmere 2-1 last weekend, and have enjoyed two straight victories against Fleetwood.

Fleetwood kept up their recent trend of matches with both teams scoring in their 2-1 defeat away to Crawley last weekend, with Fleetwood scoring with their only shot on target. They were priced at 19/10 to win the game but suffered a defeat.

Scoring has not been a problem for the visitors this season. Just three League Two sides have scored more goals than the 26 Swindon have managed, and they will be backing themselves to find the net here.

Both teams are struggling defensively. Fleetwood have yet to keep a clean sheet at Highbury Stadium this season, after seven League Two home games, while Swindon have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last four.

There have been plenty of open games featuring Fleetwood this season, with both teams scoring in 11 of their 15 League Two games. In fact, both teams have scored in all seven of Fleetwood’s league home games.

A 2-1 away win for Swindon looks a decent correct-score bet. Five of Fleetwood’s last seven League Two games have produced over 2.5 goals and, of Swindon’s nine wins this season, three were by a 2-1 scoreline.
