Swansea City vs West Bromwich Albion: match statistics
Swansea City demonstrates solid home form, winning 42% of matches at their own stadium and failing to score in just 8% of home fixtures. The hosts have won 3 of their last 5 overall matches, averaging 1.8 points per game, which signals growing confidence. Conversely, West Bromwich Albion shows poor away statistics – a mere 25% win rate and a substantial 75% loss rate on the road, alongside a negative goal difference of -9. The visitors have lost 4 of their last 5 away games, confirming their struggles on their travels. Swansea's advantage in possession (57% vs 50%) and superior average xG at home (1.39 vs 1.24 for the visitors away) further bolster the case for the home side. Given these factors, Swansea City has a realistic chance of taking all three points, though a draw cannot be ruled out in a close encounter.
