Summary
Lineups
Head to Head

Two teams that love to score and concede goals face off in a matchup that promises plenty of action.


Swansea, currently six points behind today’s opponent West Brom and the sixth-place playoff spot, will be highly motivated to close the gap and climb higher in the standings.

The home side has a strong track record of both scoring and conceding, with a goal difference of 19:13 at home.

They are currently riding a wave of momentum with two consecutive home wins against Luton and QPR, which adds to their confidence heading into this crucial fixture.


West Brom, on the other hand, has struggled on the road this season, managing only one win in 10 away matches—a 2-1 victory against Hull.

Their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded eight goals in those 10 games.

Across their 13 away fixtures, they hold a goal difference of 18:14, showing their ability to score but also their vulnerability at the back.

Interestingly, the last four head-to-head encounters between these teams have been won by the home sides, with two victories apiece.

Given Swansea's strong recent home form and West Brom's away struggles, this game tilts slightly in favor of the hosts.


What we say

Both Teams to Score


This is a prime opportunity for Swansea to close the gap and edge closer to the top six.

Considering the recent head-to-head matchups, the current home and away form, and the goal differences of both teams, an open and competitive match is expected.

Swansea holds a slight advantage, thanks to their strong recent home performances, but given the circumstances, the most likely outcome is both teams finding the net.
