History of the Swindon Town v Brighton & Hove Albion fixture

Brighton & HA pack their bags to visit Swindon Town at County Ground on Sunday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 47 games played, Seagulls have recorded 10 wins, and Swindon Town have come away with 23 victories.

The previous match played between the two at County Ground was within the last three years, in November 2001, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Swindon Town have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. A generous 8 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Brighton & HA's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Seagulls have hit 6 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Swindon Town see themselves just below half way in the Nationwide League Division Two, showing a record of 31 points from their 23 games played so far, Brighton & HA are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 38 points from 23 games.
