Bristol Rovers predicted team vs Swindon Town: Chance for fringe players to impress

Bristol Rovers have enjoyed a fine run in League One of late, but attention briefly turns back to the EFL Trophy on Tuesday when Swindon Town visit the Mem in the final game of the group stages.

The Gas are well placed to book their spot in the knockout stages after taking four points from their opening two games in the competition, and a win over Crystal Palace under-21s a fortnight ago served as a catalyst for the subsequent three-match winning run in the league.

Swindon have already been eliminated from the competition, so a victory will be enough to secure at least second place in Group M, which would mean an away tie in the second round. Should Palace fail to get a win at Home Park against Plymouth Argyle, the Gas will also advance to the knockout phase.
