April 28, 2018 at 19:30 Moscow time at Liberty Stadium the match will take place The 36th round of the English Championship between the clubs Swansea and Chelsea. Will the Swans take away points from the pensioners?
Swansea
Having played 34 rounds (1 game in reserve), the Swans, who scored 33 points, are in 17th place in the nuclear submarine table. Although the gap from the relegation zone is 4 points, it cannot yet be called comfortable.
In the previous 5 matches of the English Championship, the team earned only three points, thanks to 3 draws. The Welsh club's attack scored only twice, while they conceded 9 goals during the specified period. The status of the most productive football player here belongs to the Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew. Now he has 7 goals and 2 assists.
In the previous round, Swansea played away against Manchester City, who became the champion ahead of schedule. To say that the hosts had an advantage is to say nothing. Because it was a “one-wicket game.” After all, if you look at the statistics, we will see that the difference in ball possession was 83 to 17 percent. The advantage in strikes was just as colossal. All this resulted in a crushing defeat with a score of 0:5.
Swansea plays well at their stadium. This is especially noticeable lately. Thus, in the last five home matches there were 4 wins and one draw. Moreover, such favorites as Liverpool and Arsenal lost here.
Chelsea
“Pensioners” also played 34 matches and scored 63 points. As a result, only 5th position and a gap of 5 points from the league champion four.
In the five previous rounds, the London team earned 10 points thanks to three wins and one draw. The difference between goals scored and goals conceded during this period is 9:8. The capital club was unable to keep a clean sheet in any of the reporting matches. Hazard and Morata are still the most productive players, scoring 12 and 11 goals respectively.
In the last round, Conte's team visited Burnley and, despite a serious advantage, achieved only a minimal victory with a score of 2:1. The first ball flew into the home team's goal as a result of an own goal. Burnley regained their balance shortly after the break. The author of the winning goal for the “aristocrats” was Victor Moses, who took advantage of Emerson’s pass in the 69th minute of the match.
The Londoners have played 17 away matches this season. In 9 of them the team won, with 3 draws and 5 defeats.
Swansea – Chelsea: head-to-head statistics
Only in one of the last five head-to-head matches did the Welsh team win, while the Londoners did it twice. In the first round of the current championship at Stamford Bridge, the hosts achieved a minimal victory of 1:0.
Bookmaker quotes
Bookmakers consider the current champion to be the clear favorite for the upcoming match. Thus, you can bet on the success of Conte’s team with a coefficient of 1.57, while the victory of the “swans” is estimated at 6.85. The peaceful outcome of this confrontation is valued at 4.14.
Forecast and bet on the match from the site
Despite the fact that the guests really have a better chance of not winning, I wouldn’t discount the Swans so quickly. The team has not lost at home for a long time, although its opponents had clear favorites. In addition, the home team has not yet guaranteed themselves a place in the Premier League for next season. I think that the guests will have to work hard to take away the points from Liberty.
