Hereford's Away Form Concerns Di Canio

Swindon manager Paolo Di Canio has highlighted the difference between Hereford's home and away form and has said he doesn't feel tomorrow's match will be easy for Swindon.

"When you think about Hereford you could think it will be an easy game but I think that it will be a very tough game," Di Canio told the Swindon Advertiser.

"They have -17 goal difference and they scored only four goals – two at home and two – away. They have conceded 21 goals but the strange thing is that they have let in 16 at home and just five away.

"Away from home they play very deep, try to stay in front of the ball and defend for their life before counter-attacking. For this I told my players to be careful because it will be very tough.

"A team who tries to stay up in the league will do everything to try and win a game at home, but away they are happy to get even a point.

"There might not be a lot of space to play our football but we must find a way to do this and take the chance when we have one to score."
