Swindon have one final cup game to play this season, a dead rubber trip to Home Park in the Jersey Mike’s Trophy.

Despite this, Holloway wants to bring a strong squad to allow his players to build a better understanding, and also find some form.

For many, this game is slightly meaningless; but for some, there will be a lot on the line. Who most needs to impress against Plymouth?

Antwoine Hackford

One of the players who is being given the night off is Aaron Drinan. That leaves the striker role open, and that means Hackford will have his chance to impress.

The last few months have been tricky for Hackford, as he has been in and out of the side. The sole moment of real quality Swindon have seen from him came in this competition, when he showcased his pace and calm finishing to net against Crystal Palace under-21s.

Often he has been shifted away from being the central striker that he is, so with the chance to show what he can do there, he will need to show why Town moved from him late in the summer.

Jaylan Pearman

When Pearman arrived, there was not an obvious role for him in the team. Now, with three attacking midfielders, he is a more natural fit. That becomes especially tantalising when you consider that many of the other players who could feature there are injured.

Holloway has been impressed with him in training, and he looked bright when he came on against Milton Keynes Dons.

If the Australian can play with freedom against Plymouth, and showcase the elite technical ability that he has, then there is a space to be won for him on Saturdays.

Joel McGregor

The other two are probably fighting for their immediate Swindon careers; that is not so much the case for McGregor. However, he has got a lot of work to do to get back into the starting 11.

In pre-season, it looked to be a straight fight between Mitch Clark and McGregor to play right-back, and the academy graduate could well have been ahead, but injury has allowed Clark to establish himself.

Having now returned from injury, McGregor has some work to do to edge out one of the most consistent performers in the squad, starting with a strong performance at Home Park.
