Swansea City form and stats

11-6-5 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Swansea City so far this season.

Swansea manager S. Cooper and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Reading (placed 7th) in the Championship. Preceding that match was the home game against Queens Park Rangers that was lost 0-1.

The hometeam coach S. Cooper made a successful contribution in the game against Reading, bringing on André Ayew who scored the equalizer in the 2-2 draw.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Swansea handle that role? We have found 20 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are eight wins, five draws and seven defeats.

The Swansea City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 25 in 22 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Swansea have conceded only 15 goals.

Derby County form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Derby County, who have the fewest scored goals (32) in Championship, so far with only 19 points returning home. The records show 5-4-13 (win-draw-lose). A depressing four defeats in a row for Derby County in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Barnsley. It's looking increasingly bleak for County who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Luton Town was the last time a defeat was avoided.

County failed to get anything from their last game, a Championship home match vs Birmingham City (placed 16th) that ended with defeat 1-2. A 0-3 defeat away at Preston North End before that.

We have checked recent matches where County have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 15 games were two victories, three draws and ten defeats.

The attacking power of County when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 22 league matches away. County have conceded 30 goals in these away matches.
