The Burnley & Swansea City head coaches Kompany and Martin are both fearing and looking forward to this very important match in the top regions of the Championship league table.
- Burnley have not yet lost a game at home.
- Swansea City is in the best form (5-0-1) in Championship
Burnley and Swansea City should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Burnley form and stats
Overall Championship stats at home this season for Burnley are 2-4-0 (wins-draws-losses).
Happy days for Burnley in their previous game, a fixture away at Coventry City (placed 24th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Harwood-Bellis, defender, was given a rating of 7.85/10 in that game, top of the team. Harwood-Bellis won 9 of 16 duels.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Stoke City that ended 1-1.Some stats: A review of the 10 most recent league games reveals that 8 of them had at least one goal scored by each team.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Burnley as they are travelling to their away game against Birmingham City in the Championship. That match is four days after this one.
Burnley have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Turf Moor with 10 goals in 6 league matches. On the other hand, Burnley have conceded 7 goals.
Swansea City form and stats
The visitors are W3-D2-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Championship. The fact that Swansea City have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.
Swansea won their last game, 2-1 versus Sunderland played at home. Darling was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 8.34. The defender Darling scored one goal and won 3 of 3 duels.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Watford.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites.

After this away game Swansea City return home for a Championship game against Reading. That game is only three sleeps after this.
