Betting on Swansea City
Swansea City is on the edge of the top half of the Championship standings. This team is positioned in 12th place, and it has 42 points earned after 32 matches in which it has attained 11 wins, reached 9 ties, and suffered 12 losses.
While the team is looking to balance its win/loss record, it is also looking to tip the scale towards won matches. This season, Swansea City has scored 45 goals and conceded 47, so it has a -2 goal difference. If the team were to win this match, it could tie on points with West Brom and Coventry. However, it would not move up the standings.
In the last five Championship matches, Swansea has not been having the expected results, in fact, the team has had a greater predisposition to defeat. During these matches, Swansea has won one match, a 2-1 win against Blackpool. The team has also drawn once to Queens Park Rangers 1-1, and lost three times: 3-4 against Birmingham City, 3-0 against Sheffield United, and 1-0 vs Blackburn Rovers. These results, however, do not vary much depending on whether the team is playing at home or away.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Andrew Fisher; Ryan Manning, Ben Cabango, Harry Darling, Matthew Sorinola; Nathan Wood, Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes, Luke Cundle; Oliver Cooper, Joël Piroe.
Betting on Stoke City
Stoke City is positioned in 19th place in the Championship standings, and it has played the same number of matches than its rival. Still, the difference between the two teams is that Stoke City has won 10 matches, drawn 7, and lost 15. Although it has scored 36 goals, it has also conceded 39, leaving the team with a -3 goal difference and 37 points in the standings. However, if the team wins this match, it could move up two places (17th place), above Birmingham City and Queens Park Rangers.
Moreover, its recent results have been quite varied. The team has recorded two wins, a 4-0 win over Reading, and a 3-0 win over Huddersfield Town, which were attained by a landslide. It has also drawn once to Hull City 0-0, and it has lost two times away by one-goal difference, 1-0 against Luton Town, and 1-0 against Blackpool. Stoke City’s dominance at home is evident, but playing away is another story, and which does not favor them in this upcoming match against Swansea City.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Matija Šarkić; Phil Jagielka, Morgan Fox, Dujon Sterling, Ben Wilmot; Ben Pearson, Josh Laurent, Will Smallbone; Dwight Gayle, Tyrese Campbell, Jacob Brown.
JefeBet Prediction
Next Tuesday’s Swansea City vs Stoke City match will be a challenge for both teams, but especially for the visiting team, who despite scoring a lot of goals recently, is going through a negative run playing away from home.
Swansea City has scored 6 goals in the last five matches, while Stoke City has scored 7, but only in two encounters. Taking all of the above into consideration, and as the teams are not very far from each other regarding their level, we believe the match may end in a draw.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
