Swindon Town face a trip to Bournemouth at Dean Court on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Robins will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 25 and win only 6 of the 48 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in August 2003, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a League Division Two match.
