History of the Swindon Town v Peterborough United fixture

Swindon Town prepare to entertain Peterborough United at County Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Robins are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 5 of the 22 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at County Ground was less than a year ago, in September 2003, with Swindon Town running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a League Division Two match.
