Brighton & HA prepare to entertain Swindon Town at Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Seagulls are clearly on top, having won 28 and lost only 11 of the 53 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Withdean Stadium was earlier this season, with Brighton & HA running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a (Associate Members) match.

Recent respective form guides

Brighton & Hove Albion's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Seagulls have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Swindon Town's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Robins have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Brighton & HA are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 39 points from their 40 games thus far. Swindon Town find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 45 points from their 41 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Brighton & HA at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Seagulls will at least gain a draw. Score draw
