Swansea City have 54 points running out as the team playing at home. Derby County have brought back 28 points being the away side. Could we look at anything else than a home win?

Insights:
  • Derby County have the fewest matches over the total-line (6) in Championship

Not a lot of time to rest for the hosting team, as they were involved in a Championship match only four days ago. That game was an away game at Millwall, so at least Swansea are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Swansea City form and stats

All-inclusive Championship results at home this season for Swansea City are 8-5-5 (wins-draws-losses).

Nothing to worry about in defence for Swansea City, as their goalkeeper Andy Fisher has completely shut out the opponents for 297 minutes in the Championship.

A strong away win for Swansea against Millwall the last match, as Piroe were on target. Piroe, a forward, was the declared top performer for the side in that match, earning a rating of 7.83 (out of 10). Piroe scored one goal, hit two key passes and had 51 successful passes (of 59 total).

Before that match, a win away at Cardiff City.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Swansea City have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won five times, drawn four and lost five.

The Swansea City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 23 in 18 matches. 20 goals have been conceded.

Impressive finishing from Morrison secured the home win 1-0 against Preston North End in their previous game. Midfielder Lawrence was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.01. Lawrence hit four key passes and had 29 successful passes (of 36 total).

A draw for Derby County before that, at their own venue hosting Coventry City (1-1).

We have checked recent matches where Derby County have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 16 games were two victories, four draws and ten defeats.

The visitors have scored 12 goals from 20 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game.

More than 50 % of these were conceded from the 60th minute and onwards in these in the last 30 minutes of games.
