Mark Cooper calls on Swindon Town players to stay focused against Bristol City

Swindon Town manager Mark Cooper has called on his players to remain focused when they travel to Bristol City in a top-of-the-table League One match on Tuesday evening.

The fourth-placed Robins beat their local rivals and current league leaders 1-0 in November, bringing to an end City's 22-game unbeaten run.

Cooper told BBC Sport: "I'll tell them to play the game, not the occasion, and to not worry about anything around them.

"We can only affect what goes on on the field of play. We're playing against the best team in the league, with the best players and the best manager.

"They deserve to be where they are, but hopefully on the night we'll show what we're about."

Swindon were top of the league at Christmas, but Friday's 3-0 defeat against MK Dons has left them 15 points behind City.
