Swansea City vs Brentford Predictions

• Only four of Swansea’s 24 Championship games this season have produced over 2.5 goals.
• Four of Brentford’s last six away league starts have also produced under 2.5 goals.
• Swansea have lost just one of their dozen home matches this season (W7, D4), with Brentford losing just two of their 11 assignments on the road (W6, D3).

Neither Side to Crack in Promotion Six-Pointer

Swansea and Brentford lock horns in a crucial promotion six-pointer at the Liberty Stadium this Wednesday night and we’re expecting another tight battle following the sides’ 1-1 draw in November’s reverse fixture.

There was nothing between the teams at Griffin Park in that clash and there’s little to separate them in the Championship table going into this contest. Swansea are currently in control of the second automatic promotion spot, but Brentford are just two points behind in fourth with a game in hand and have the opportunity to leapfrog the Welsh outfit here.

That will be a massive incentive for the Bees to go all out for the three points on Wednesday evening, but the goal stats and form of these sides point towards another low scoring stalemate.

The Swans have won four of their last five Championship starts (D1) and have lost just one league game at the Liberty all season (W7, D4), while Brentford are remarkably unbeaten in their last 16 league matches (W9, D7), winning their last four.

With neither team opposed, we’re predicting another 1-1 draw for this encounter and under 2.5 goals also makes plenty of appeal.

Just four of Swansea’s 24 Championship outings this term have produced over 2.5, while four of Brentford’s last six on the road have generated less than three goals.
