Swindon Town travel to take on Bury at Gigg Lane on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 20 games played, Robins have recorded 5 wins, and Bury have come away with 9 victories.
The last time the two teams met at Bury was back in August 2001, over five years ago, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 3 winners in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides
Bury's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. The Shakers have conceded a disappointing 12 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 1 of their own chances.
Swindon Town's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Robins have conceded 7 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.
Bury are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 45 from their 42 matches played. Swindon Town are holding the final promotion place in the Coca-Cola League Two, and have accumulated 78 points from the 42 games they have played so far.
