Swindon ready to tap the Admiral against title rivals Exeter
Posted Thursday, January 30, 2020 by PA
New striker Admiral Muskwe could make his Swindon debut as the Sky Bet League Two leaders take on Exeter in Saturday’s top-of-the-table clash.
The 21-year-old Zimbabwe international completed a loan move from Leicester earlier this week until the end of the season but was unable to feature in Tuesday night’s 3-1 defeat at Colchester.
Fellow forward Jerry Yates will most likely lead Richie Wellens’ attack after rejoining the Robins on loan from Rotherham for the rest of the season. Yates scored 13 goals in 29 appearances for Swindon during the first half of the current campaign.
Wellens has no suspension worries ahead of the match as Swindon look to return to winning ways following some mixed results in the league since the turn of the year.
Second-placed Exeter sit two points off the summit with a game in hand and are also aiming to put defeat last time out – a 3-1 loss at Port Vale – behind them in their promotion push.
On-loan MK Dons winger Brennan Dickenson made his second start for the midweek trip to Vale Park and could keep his place in the starting XI after missing out last weekend against Colchester.
Nicky Ajose returned to the starting line-up midweek – following a spell on the sidelines – and played for 85 minutes as he builds his fitness back up.
Alex Fisher may start on the bench again as he continues his comeback from injury, while the visitors have no suspension concerns.
