Latics and Swindon have met 14 times down the years, results are split right down the middle with five wins apiece and four draws.
The first meeting came in the 1986/87 season, Lou Macari was in charge at the County Ground and we met four times that campaign, first two coming in the league, a win a piece, the next two were in the playoffs for a place in English Football’s second tier.
The first leg was at Springfield Park, Latics raced into a two goal lead with efforts from Chris Thompson and David Lowe, but the appearance of the Northern Lights over the Shevington End proved to be a bad omen and Swindon fought back to 2:2 and then scored a late winner to take a lead into the 2nd leg, that game ended goalless and Swindon gained promotion.
Match Highlights Latics 2:3 Swindon Town
The last time we met at the DW Stadium was on Halloween 2015 in a League 1 encounter, the game ended 1:0 to the Latics, Francisco Junior scoring in the 96th minute which was just reward following 95 minutes of time wasting by Swindon keeper Lawrence Vigouroux.
