History of the Swindon Town v Huddersfield Town fixture

Huddersfield face a trip to Swindon Town at County Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Terriers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2004, with Huddersfield inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Robins in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Swindon Town's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Robins have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Huddersfield's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The Terriers's have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 10.

Swindon Town are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca Cola League One with a return of just 47 points from their 45 games thus far. Huddersfield are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 72 points from 45 games.
