Portsmouth 4-0 Swansea

Current streaks

Recent form

Portsmouth

Portsmouth's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team struggling to find stability in the Championship. The Pompey have won just two of their last six matches, suffering three defeats and managing one draw. Their defensive frailties are evident, conceding 10 goals in this period, including a heavy 4-0 loss to Derby County. However, Portsmouth have shown glimpses of attacking prowess, notably in their 4-1 victory over Coventry City and a 3-0 win against Bristol City. The team's goal-scoring average of 1.33 per game is overshadowed by their defensive record of conceding 1.67 goals per match. Interestingly, 83% of Portsmouth's recent games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting their matches are often high-scoring affairs. Despite this, the team find themselves in a precarious 21st position in the league, highlighting the need for improved consistency to climb the table.

Swansea

Swansea have shown a mixed run of form in their recent fixtures, with a notable improvement in their last two matches. The Swans have won their last two games, scoring five goals and conceding only one, which includes a comfortable 3-0 victory over Queens Park Rangers. This positive streak comes after a brief dip in form where they suffered back-to-back defeats against Hull City and Sunderland, with the latter being a high-scoring 3-2 loss at home. Interestingly, Swansea's matches have been rather goal-heavy, with 83% of their last six games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in five out of six matches. Despite their mid-table position, the team's attacking prowess is evident, averaging 1.83 goals per game over this period, though their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game.

Recent home/away form

Portsmouth

Portsmouth have shown impressive form at home recently, with three wins, two draws, and only one loss in their last six matches at Fratton Park. The Pompey have been particularly prolific in front of goal, netting 12 times in these fixtures, averaging 2 goals per game. Their defence has also been solid, conceding just 5 goals, with two clean sheets. Notably, Portsmouth are on a current three-game unbeaten run at home, including two high-scoring victories where they netted three or more goals. The standout result was a 4-1 thrashing of Coventry City in their most recent home match. Despite their 21st position in the league, Portsmouth's home form suggests they are a formidable opponent on their own turf, with 67% of their home games seeing over 2.5 goals scored.

Swansea

Swansea's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with the Swans showing resilience on the road despite some inconsistency. They have managed to secure three wins in their last six away matches, demonstrating their ability to pick up points on their travels. Interestingly, Swansea have been involved in relatively high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent away games seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's attacking prowess is evident, as they've averaged 1.33 goals per game, but their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding in every match and failing to keep a clean sheet in this run. A notable trend is that both teams have scored in 83% of these fixtures, suggesting that Swansea's away matches are often entertaining for neutral spectators. While there are no extended runs of wins or losses to report, the Swans have shown consistency in their goal-scoring, netting twice in four of their last six away games.
