Swindon Town prepare to entertain Port Vale at County Ground on Wednesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Robins are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 7 of the 32 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at County Ground was just last season, in October 2003, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division Two match.
