21st- against 14th spot might not sound all that hot. Fear not: We have the details that makes Swansea City - Millwall (even) more entertaining!

Insights:
  • Swansea City have yet to win a game at home.
  • Millwall have yet to win a game away.

It's no vacation for neither Swansea nor Millwall as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Swansea City form and stats

Three Championship home games done for Swansea City, who are not happy collecting 2 points from these matches.

The home supporters saw a 0-0 draw versus Hull City in the Championship last time out and are looking for a win here. Midfielder Matt Grimes was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.73 (out of ten) in that game. Grimes hit the woodwork once, hit two key passes and had 120 successful passes (of 126 total).

Prior to that, an away loss at Preston North End.

This is expected to be a close game, with Swansea perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Swansea City as a small favourite), we find nine games. Swansea City has won six of these, drawn one and lost two.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Swansea City as they are travelling to their away game against Luton Town in the Championship. That match is three days after this one.

Swansea City have scored 1 goal here in 3 league matches, a depressing statistic. Swansea have conceded 3 in these home matches.

Millwall form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Championship for Millwall with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.

Millwall are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at West Bromwich Albion (placed 1st). Jed Wallace, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.41. Wallace served one assist and hit four key passes.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Blackpool.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Millwall playing away and similar expectations, we found 18 relevant matches. Results were seven Millwall wins, five draws and six defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Coventry City in just three days.

Millwall have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 3 goals have been scored. Millwall's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Swansea five wins, three draws and Millwall two victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
