For most of the previous decade, Exeter were a League Two team, so they were very satisfied with last season's mid-table finish. Exeter started the 2024/25 season with six points from four league matches. In the previous game, they won 2-0 on the road against Bolton. The home side had a higher ball possession percentage and eight shots on the goal more than the guests, but Exeter's efficiency made the difference between the teams.
The current season is the fourth consecutive in League Two for Swindon. In the previous one, they finished 19th on the table, and Mark Kennedy's team certainly hopes for a better 2024/25 season. However, the beginning was nightmarish, as they collected only two points in the first four league rounds. In the previous game, Swindon lost 2-1 at home against Notts Co. Both teams had several chances to win, but Kennedy's team eventually stayed empty-handed.
Exeter vs Swindon pick: Exeter to win
Exeter have a much better start to the 2024/25 season than Swindon, and they are the team from a higher tier of football in England, so the reasons for this bet are apparent.

Swindon team news
Swindon was very active in the final days of the summer transfer window. They added Kabongo Tshimanga (from Peterborough), Gavin Kilkenny (Bournemouth), George Cox (Volendam), Daniel Butterworth (Carlisle), and Daniel Barden (Norwich). Tshimanga, Kilkenny, and Butterworth already debuted in the previous round, so it is obvious that those players will have a big role in the rest of the season.
