Swansea 2-2 Portsmouth

Current streaks

Recent form

Swansea

Swansea have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with a balanced record of three wins and three losses in their last six matches. The team's inconsistency is evident, as they have alternated between wins and losses in their most recent four games. A notable high-scoring encounter occurred in their 4-3 defeat against Leeds United, contributing to their average of 2.67 total goals per game. Defensively, Swansea have struggled to keep clean sheets, managing only one in their last six matches. Their goal difference of zero reflects their even performance in attack and defence, scoring and conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game. Despite their mid-table position, Swansea's ability to score in 83% of these matches suggests they possess offensive capability, though their defensive vulnerabilities have prevented them from establishing a consistent winning run.

Portsmouth

Portsmouth's recent form has been inconsistent, with their latest victory against Preston North End breaking a run of three consecutive defeats. Despite their low position in the league table, Pompey have shown flashes of potential, scoring in five of their last six matches. However, their defensive record is a concern, having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight games. The team's goal-scoring average of 1.17 per match is relatively modest, but they've been involved in some entertaining fixtures, with both teams scoring in 67% of their recent outings. Their most recent match against Preston was particularly high-scoring, ending 3-1 in Portsmouth's favour. While Portsmouth have struggled to find consistency, their ability to score in most matches gives them a fighting chance as they look to climb up from their current 24th position in the Championship.

Recent home/away form

Swansea

Swansea's recent home form has been rather inconsistent, with the Swans struggling to find a consistent rhythm at the Liberty Stadium. Their last six home matches have yielded two wins, two draws, and two losses, highlighting their unpredictable nature. Defensively, they have been relatively solid, keeping three clean sheets and conceding just six goals in this period. However, their attacking output has been modest, with only six goals scored across these matches. The most notable game in this run was their most recent fixture, a high-scoring 3-4 defeat to Leeds United, which bucked the trend of low-scoring affairs. Indeed, 83% of their recent home games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting that the Leeds match was an anomaly in an otherwise tight and cagey run of home fixtures for Swansea.

Portsmouth

Portsmouth's recent away form has been particularly poor, with the club suffering four losses in their last six matches on the road. Notably, they are currently on a run of three consecutive away defeats, which has contributed to their position at the bottom of the Championship table. The standout result in this sequence is undoubtedly the heavy 6-1 loss to Stoke City, a scoreline that significantly impacted their goals conceded tally. Portsmouth have struggled to keep clean sheets away from home, conceding in all six of their recent away fixtures. Their defensive frailties are further emphasised by the fact that they are conceding an average of 2.17 goals per game on their travels, whilst only managing to score 0.83 goals per match themselves. Despite these challenges, Portsmouth have shown they can still be competitive in some matches, as evidenced by their 2-1 victory over Queens Park Rangers and their 1-1 draw with Hull City.
