Football League Preview: Swindon eye top spot
Swindon Town will leapfrog Bristol City to go top of League One if they claim at least a point at Fleetwood Town on Saturday.
Mark Cooper's side have the opportunity to take over at the summit with Steve Cotterill's league leaders in action at Doncaster Rovers in the third round of the FA Cup.
Swindon head to Highbury Stadium on the back of a 1-0 victory over Port Vale, which was their sixth win in their last seven games in the third tier.
The Wiltshire outfit have secured seven away victories already in League One this season and an eighth would put them two points clear of Bristol City.
Fleetwood ended a five-game winless run with a 2-0 triumph at Rochdale last time out and they could move into the top six with a victory this weekend.
Managerless Gillingham start life after Peter Taylor with a trip to Vale Park on Saturday.
The Kent club sacked manager Taylor on New Year's Eve as they languish just one place above the relegation zone, so Andy Hessenthaler has taken over as caretaker boss.
Taylor was in charge for 14 months and chairman Paul Scally revealed that pressure from supporters had prompted him to relieve the former England caretaker manager of his duties.
