Our prediction: 3-1

2:52PM

It's a battle between two teams at the wrong end of the League One table and victory is much-needed for both sides today as they hover just above the relegation zone.


A 1-0 win over Wigan Athletic on Tuesday evening saw the Robins leapfrog out the relegation zone, now sitting just one point above the bottom four.


Shrewsbury lost at home too Crewe on Tuesday but remain four points above relegation and three points above Swindon in the league standings.

2:43PM
