Swindon vs Eastleigh Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Previews

Having left it late to strike in the initial tie between these two, League One Swindon earned a replay back in front of their own fans, although, considering they faced National League Eastleigh, they probably won’t be too pleased about this. Having said this, back on home soil, the League One side really ought to be coming out on top in this fixture.

At odds of 4/5, ‘Swindon to Score Over 1.5 Goals’ is the standout bet ahead of this fixture. The hosts have been in reasonably good scoring form at home of late and are fancied to continue in the same vein against non-league opposition on Tuesday night.

In their last three home fixtures, Swindon have twice netted at least two goals. They may not have achieved this on any other occasions recently, but it would be unfair to judge them based on form against the likes of Walsall and Bolton – two of the better teams in League One – when they’re up against National League opposition.

Eastleigh haven’t been in great form on the road of late. They conceded four last time out against Barrow, as well as conceding three against Woking before that. Against a League One side who will be very keen to put this tie to bed with minimal fuss, they’re likely to struggle defensively once more.

The fact that Swindon cruised to a 3-0 win over Charlton, a side who’ve been tough to beat, at the weekend bodes well ahead of this one and the hosts, who should be full of confidence, are fancied to notch a few more goals.
