THE BIG MATCH PREVIEW

Posted on: Sat 05 Apr 2008

Swindon Town host Oldham Athletic at The County Ground this weekend with both teams after three points for differing reasons.

Oldham still have a chance of making the end of season play-off pack and after an emphatic win over Huddersfield Town last weekend, come into the game on good form.

Swindon meanwhile know a home win could hold the key to not only League One safety, but also a solid finish to the campaign with six games remaining.

Injuries and Suspensions

Swindon Town

Long-term injury victims Barry Corr (shoulder) and Christian Roberts (knee) both miss the game whilst Patrick Kanyuka is expected to step up his training next week with the aim of featuring in next week's reserve game.

Maurice Malpas has four strikers to choose from, with Moses Ashikodi and Blair Sturrock pushing for a recall after playing their part in Tuesday's 6-1 win over Chippenham Town in the Wiltshire Premier Shield.

Kaid Mohamed, who came off the bench at Tranmere Rovers last Friday night, is another option for the manager who may make changes in a bid to arrest his side's run without a victory.
