PREVIEW: Eastleigh v Swindon Town

Swindon Town kick-off their FA Cup campaign live on the BBC on Friday night needing a good display to end recent poor cup form.

The Robins have not won a first round tie in the oldest football cup competition in the world since a 4-1 hammering of Huddersfield back in the 2011-12 season.

That campaign saw Swindon go all the way to round four after Paolo Di Canio's men knocked out Colchester, then Premier League side Wigan in round three, but a trip to Leicester was too much for Town as the Foxes won 2-0 courtesy of a Jermaine Beckford brace.

Since then, Swindon have fell at the first hurdle against Macclesfield (twice), Cheltenham Town and Rochdale.

Eastleigh and Swindon have never met in a competitive game, but the Spitfires did win a pre-season match between the two in July of 2014.

Darnell Furlong will miss the game due to a one-match suspension picked up on Saturday at Scunthorpe with his fifth yellow card of the season, but fellow right-back Brad Barry has been passed fit to strut his stuff in front of the BBC cameras.

Jon Obika is sidelined however with injury, but Michael Doughty, Lloyd Jones, Brandon Ormode-Ottewill, Jordan Stewart and Tom Smith have all been given the green light by the doctor.

James Constable, formerly of Oxford United has had a head injury recently but he is expected to feature for the hosts while ex-Town striker Jamie Cureton is cup-tied.

Town's trip to Eastleigh will be broadcast live on BBC Two from 19:30, with kick-off at 19:55.
