Nigel Pearson urges Leicester to maintain their recent form against Swindon Town this afternoon.

Nigel Pearson has urged his Leicester team to continue their recent run of form against League Two side Swindon Town in the FA Cup.

The Foxes have put together back-to-back wins over Nottingham Forest and Southampton without conceding a goal. However, the former Hull boss has warned his side against a potential upset after the Robins beat Wigan in the previous round.

"We need to make sure our performances continue in the same vein as the last two," he said. "That would make us a difficult proposition for any team.

"I think they'll be confident and come and play their own game. They had a really good result in the third round against Wigan and we know every cup round will always have upsets.

"We've got to make sure, first and foremost, that the side that goes out tomorrow is capable of replicating the last two performances. That's the benchmark for how we move forward."

Leicester have been unable to secure three wins in a row so far this season.
