History of the Swindon Town v Exeter City fixture

Swindon Town play host to Exeter City at County Ground on Monday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Robins are clearly on top, having won 25 and lost only 5 of the 40 games.

The last time the two teams met at Swindon Town was back in August 2000, over five years ago, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Cup match.
