Match Preview
A Swansea side who’ve recently climbed out of the relegation spots welcome seventh-placed Burnley in the 26th round of the Premier League (PL). The visitors are still flying high but have run into some serious turbulence: it’s been nine games since they recorded a victory. |
Swansea’s progress this season came to a dead stop in the middle of October when they went on to lose ten of 14 matches. The terrible run saw them drop to the bottom of the table, but recently things have turned and the Welsh side are now unbeaten in four matches. |
Only separated from the relegation zone by goal difference, the Swans are still in a precarious position. There’s been no shortage of confidence boosts lately, however, crowned with an 8-1 thrashing of Notts County in the FA cup replay. |
Carlos Carvalhal has been a vital part of the Swans revival, and the coach have dazzled with his wit and creative imagery in interview after interview. Speaking of the clubs position at the moment he turned to the waves for inspiration: “We have our heads above the water and we are breathing fresh air, but the sharks are still around us.” |
Players to watch: Swansea striker Tammy Abraham started the season brightly but then went 14 games without a goal. Having bagged a FA-cup brace in midweek, could the youngster return to PL scoring form? |
With two goals in the last five PL matches, Johann Gudmundsson is the closest Burnley have to an in form goalscorer at the moment. |
Stat attack: Swansea have four home wins in a row (all competitions), Burnley are winless in seven straight away games. |
Goals? Burnley’s 1.7 and Swansea’s 2.2 are the two lowest goals per match averages in the league. |
Neither side have seen a red card this season, and Swansea’s tally of 34 yellow cards (1.3 on average) is among the best in the league. |
