Sports Mole previews the Capital One Cup encounter between Paolo Di Canio's Swindon Town and Burnley.

The bookmakers have found this Capital One Cup tie between League One Swindon Town and Championship outfit Burnley hard to call.

While hosts Swindon are a league below their visitors, they have an extremely good record at the County Ground over the past 12 months.

Loanee striker Adam Rooney is expected to come into the Swindon starting lineup after he found the net against Bournemouth at the weekend.

Former Blackburn Rovers defender Jay McEveley is also expected to start in defence for Paolo Di Canio's side.

Meanwhile, Charlie Austin is the leading goalscorer in the Championship so far this season and he is expected to lead Burnley's attacking line against the Robins.

Recent form

Swindon: WWDLLL
Burnley: WLWLWL

Swindon: Foderingham; Thompson, McCormack, Ward, McEveley; Ritchie, Navarro, Miller; Rooney, Collins

Burnley: Grant; Trippier, Edgar, Shackell, Mee; Stewart, McCaan, Marney, Wallace; Vokes, Austin

Sports Mole says: 2-1
