Swansea and Bournemouth set for a draw in the big Championship clash
2660

Two teams looking to win promotion to the Premier League, Swansea and Bournemouth meet at the Liberty Stadium on Tuesday night.

Swansea heads into this clash fourth-place in the Championship, two points off the top of the table. The Welsh side recorded a 2-0 home win over Luton Town last time out, which means that Steve Cooper’s team have lost just once in their previous five league matches, recording three victories.

The victory over the Hatters was another low-scoring encounter for the Swans, as ten of their last 11 league games have produced under 2.5 goals.

Swansea have built their relatively lofty position on a solid home record. The home team are now unbeaten in five league matches at the Liberty Stadium in the Championship. The Welsh outfit has also won seven of their last ten league games on home soil while suffering one defeat in the process.

Bournemouth are looking for a quick return to the Premier League after suffering relegation last season. The Cherries are second in the table, just a point behind league leaders Norwich.

A 4-0 win at Barnsley in their last Championship match means that the visitors have won four of their last six matches in the English second tier.

Jason Tindall’s team has been prolific of late, scoring at least two goals in their last six outings in the Championship. Forward duo Dominic Solanke and Arnaut Groeneveld have scored six and five goals respectively in the league this season.

Bournemouth are unbeaten in three away games in the Championship, having recorded two wins. The Cherries have also suffered just one defeat in their last 14 away matches in the second tier dating back to their previous spell in the Championship in 2015.

Forebet predicts that this clash between the two promotion candidates will finish in a low-scoring draw.
