History of the Gillingham v Swindon Town fixture

Gillingham prepare to entertain Swindon Town at Priestfield Stadium at lunchtime on Saturday, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Gills are clearly on top, having won 22 and lost only 5 of the 43 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Priestfield Stadium was just last season, in April 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.
