Swansea City - West Bromwich Albion predictions

Swansea City have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 2.52 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

The visitors are conscious of the challenge before them. To come out on top against The Swans on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy task.

The hosts are still reeling from the 4:0 thrashing they received in the last round’s away game. Their opponents Portsmouth spent the entire game in the lead, ultimately winning the bout 4:0 despite the fact pre-match predictions and odds were in Swansea’s favour.

West Bromwich Albion are coming on the back of a 3:1 victory in their most recent Championship game. They were the hosts in that instance, though, and the matchup against Preston North End was largely favourable as well. In other words – they performed as well as could be expected, but the triumph itself was nothing extraordinary.

Swansea City have a notably poor defensive record when it comes to playing as visitors. We’re mostly referring to the 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 away games. They are playing as hosts this time around, but you should be aware before you put down any money.

With their most recent track record in mind, The Baggies tend to perform quite well offensively. Their previous 3 home games featured at least 5 goals in total.

Although the 2.52 betting odds for a home win show that The Swans are the favourites, their track record against WBA this season is not great. They lost an earlier bout, though it was a rather narrow defeat.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.25, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
