Cardiff City, Recent FormA 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion will be viewed as a positive outcome for Cardiff City and a valuable point into the bargain. During that encounter they had 44% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 8 shots on goal.
Manager Sabri Lamouchi will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 5 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have clocked up an impressive run of form in front of goal at Cardiff City Stadium recently, having found the net in 5 of their last 6 home matches. Sabri Lamouchi will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
It's been a mixed run of form at Cardiff City Stadium for Cardiff recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 home games.
Swansea City, Recent FormSwansea City will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Bristol City. They achieved 58% possession in that match and had 17 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Bristol City's tally of 6 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 10 and seen valuable points lost. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 2-0 win for Swansea City.
The last 3 matches between Cardiff and The Swans show that Cardiff have let in at least one goal on each occasion. It's been a long time since Cardiff at home has managed to find the back of The Swans net, having failed to score against them in their last 3 encounters at Cardiff City Stadium. Swansea have a good attacking record away to The Bluebirds in the league, having scored a total of 6 goals in their last 3 visits, which gives an average of 2 goals per game. In their past 5 meetings, Swansea's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 1 goal, so The Bluebirds will have to take their chances when they come.
Swansea has won the last 3 games they've played against Cardiff in the league.
Cardiff manager Sabri Lamouchi has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Ebou Adams (Leg), Jamilu Collins (Cruciate ligament) and Callum Robinson (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Joe Allen (Muscle) and Steven Benda (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Russell Martin will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
