Swansea vs Derby County

Current streaks

Recent form

Swansea

Swansea's recent form has been a mixed bag, with their last six matches yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Swans have shown resilience in defence, keeping three clean sheets in this period and conceding an average of just 0.83 goals per game. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring only six goals across these matches. Notably, Swansea have been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their last six games featuring under 2.5 goals. Their most impressive result came in a 3-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers, which stands out as the highest-scoring match in this run. Despite their mid-table position of 16th, Swansea have demonstrated an ability to grind out results, as evidenced by their recent 2-2 draw away at Leeds United and their narrow 1-0 win over Middlesbrough.

Derby County

Derby County have shown a remarkable turnaround in form, winning their last four matches after suffering two consecutive defeats. This impressive run has seen them score nine goals whilst conceding only three, including two clean sheets. Despite their current 22nd position in the Championship table, the Rams' recent performances suggest they are fighting hard to climb out of the relegation zone. Their defensive improvements are particularly noteworthy, with a goals conceded per game average of just 0.83 over the last six matches. Although there were no particularly high-scoring games in this period, the 3-2 away victory against Plymouth Argyle stands out as their highest-scoring encounter. Derby's ability to grind out close victories, with three of their four wins being by a single-goal margin, demonstrates a newfound resilience that could prove crucial in their battle for survival.

Recent home/away form

Swansea

Swansea's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with the Swans experiencing a notable downturn in performances at the Liberty Stadium. The Welsh side have endured a challenging run, losing three consecutive home matches before bouncing back with two wins. However, their most recent home fixture saw them suffer another defeat. Swansea have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just five goals in their last six home games, with two of those matches ending in 3-0 and 1-0 victories. Defensively, they've been somewhat vulnerable, conceding seven goals during this period. The Swans have managed to keep two clean sheets, but their goal difference remains negative. Interestingly, 67% of these recent home games have seen fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards low-scoring affairs at the Liberty Stadium.

Derby County

Derby County's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with a notable upturn in their most recent outing. The Rams have managed just one win in their last six away fixtures, a 3-2 victory over Plymouth Argyle, which broke a three-match losing streak on the road. Their away woes have been particularly evident in their defensive record, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches. The 4-0 drubbing at Queens Park Rangers stands out as a particularly heavy defeat, contributing significantly to their -5 goal difference over this period. Despite their struggles, Derby have shown some resilience, managing to score in four of the six games and securing two draws. However, their position of 22nd in the league table suggests that improvements in their away form will be crucial for their survival hopes in the Championship.
