Swansea – Barnsley Predictions
- Swansea City boast the Championship’s strongest defensive record heading into the round, conceding just 0.63 goals per-match on average – dropping to just 0.44 at home. Notably, Swansea conceded just once across the last 563 minutes of play here and as such, no side kept clean sheets in a higher portion of home games than them (66.67%).
- A 2-0 loss at Derby last time out was only Swansea’s second league defeat as favourites (W7, D2, L2) this term. Regardless, the ‘Swans’ are worthy pre-match favourites, and have not recorded back-to-back games with the same result since October, winning immediately after their two losses therein which preceded the Derby defeat.
- Barnsley are yet to draw a game under the leadership of Valérien Ismaël (W8, L4), and should he mastermind another win, Barnsley will record their first four-game winning streak in the Championship since 2012/13. They may have to overcome adversity to do that though, as the ‘Tykes’ have conceded first in 52.61% of their league games (W3, L7).
- The visitors possess just a 27.27% win-rate as pre-match betting outsiders (W3, D2, L6), but fans expect end-to-end action, with both teams finding the net in two-thirds of Barnlsey’s away league games. Topically, Swansea is not a happy hunting ground for the ‘Tykes’, who are winless in nine away H2Hs since 1974 (D2, L7).
- Players to watch: André Ayew (SWA) and Cauley Woodrow (BAR) each have seven league goals for their clubs so far. The former looks to end a three-game duck whilst the latter had a hand in three of Barnsley’s last four away league goals (one assist, two goals) – each contributing to victory.
- Hot stat: At the end of the last league round, no Championship side had picked up more than Barnsley’s ten points from losing positions.
