The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 7 points won, after 2 wins and 1 draw. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Derby County, by (0‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Preston North End, by (3‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 38 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Swansea City has won 6, tied 2 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches.
Swansea heads into this round motivated after a 3-2 home win against Preston: Borja Bastón and Byers stamped the goals of the triumph. The visiting emblem usually acts in a 4-3-3 tactical system, favoring the fast transitions, mainly through the wings. In this drawing, the three actors responsible for launching panic on the “enemy defence” are Peterson, Surridge and Routledge. One of the weaknesses of the visitors is the completion of the dangerous situations they can create. The Swansea manager is expected to have all players fit for this match.
