• Competition: Championship
• Date: Monday, 1st January 2024
• Kickoff: 15:00 UK / 16:00 CET
• Venue: Swansea.com Stadium (Swansea)

Swansea experienced a roller-coaster of a season, but they appear to have secured a mid-table position. However, with only an eight-point lead over the relegation zone, they must remain vigilant. Alan Sheehan’s squad has only managed to clinch one victory in their last five games. In their most recent match, they managed a 2-2 draw against Coventry away from home. The host team had an xG of 2.43, while the visitors had a significantly lower xG of 1.25, indicating that Swansea were lucky to escape with a draw.

It may have been ambitious for WBA to aim for the top two positions in the Championship and direct promotion, but they appear prepared to fight for the promotion playoff. Recently, WBA’s performance has been solid, having lost just one out of their last five games. In their most recent match, they secured a 1-0 victory against Leeds at home. Despite being the underdogs, even on their home turf, WBA executed their game strategy flawlessly, resulting in another win.

Swansea vs WBA pick: WBA to win

Swansea and WBA have faced off in a single head-to-head match this season, with WBA emerging victorious with a 3-2 scoreline. The upcoming game on January 1st will undoubtedly be a challenge, but WBA appears to have a better chance at securing a win.
