Swindon Town will be hoping to bounce back and return to winning ways when they take on Accrington Stanley on Saturday.
Dave Flitcroft's side head to The Wham Stadium tomorrow (3pm Kick-Off) looking to exit their current slump having lost four games on the bounce.
Stanley, on the other hand, are currently riding high in third place although they have lost their last two outings in all competitions.
LAST TIME WE MET:
A Paul Benson brace was enough to secure a 2-0 victory and all three points for The Reds at The County Ground in February 2012 - a result that pushed Paolo Di Canio's side closer to the League Two Title.

A WORD FROM BOTH CAMPS:
John Coleman, Accrington Stanley Manager: "We have to constantly keep our focus on the prize.
"We are third in the league which means we have won a lot of games this season but we can't rest on our laurels.
"I am a believer that it is about form and not results as, if you play well, results will come.
"We are a good team because we work hard, defend well and create chances, its not where we are in the league table, that's just an indicator of how good a team we are.
"Every game is important and the next game is the most important game of the season."
DAVE FLITCROFT, SWINDON TOWN MANAGER: "It is a match that works and the fans absolutely love John Coleman and Jimmy Bell.
"They've done so much to rise that club from the non-league scene and they've steadily progressed.
"They've got that quality but they've always had that Accrington way, that John Coleman way.
"They've been up near the top for the last three or four years and it has come together for them this season.
"They've got good weapons and they are playing with a lot of confidence, so we will have to nullify their threats and play to our strengths."
