Swindon Town prepare to entertain Colchester United at County Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Robins are clearly on top, having won 15 and lost only 5 of the 27 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at County Ground was just last season, in October 2002, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Division Two match.
