Swansea City, Recent FormThe Swansea City players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Bristol City recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat. They came away from that fixture with 73% of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 0 on target. By comparison, Bristol City managed 5 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. So far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 31 of their 37 games.
They're experiencing a very poor spell of form at Swansea.com Stadium, having lost 4 of their last 6 home games.
Cardiff City, Recent FormCardiff City will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-1 win in their home outing against Ipswich Town. In that game they had 43% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Ipswich Town who had 8 attempts and 4 on target.
Manager Erol Bulut will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 4 straight wins in a row, and are on an unbeaten run of 5 games.
The Cardiff City travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Perry Ng, who's scored 3 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
It was one to forget for Swansea City last time they met Cardiff City in the league, falling to a 2-0 defeat.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at Swansea.com Stadium, The Bluebirds have been unable to break through the Swansea defence and find the back of the net.
In the league, Swansea has a good track record when they host Cardiff, getting the better of them in their last 2 home games.
Swansea manager Luke Williams has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Harrison Ashby (Muscle), Josh Ginnelly (Muscle) and Liam Walsh (Calf) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Erol Bulut has a number of injury concerns in his Cardiff squad to contend with: Jak Alnwick (Knock), Kion Etete (Leg) and Mark McGuinness (Hamstring)
