Swansea vs Leeds Prediction 13.02.2024

• Competition: Championship
• Date: 13.02.2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Swansea.com Stadium (Swansea)

Swansea has been striving without success to secure a return to the Premier League for multiple seasons, and it’s certain they won’t reach that aim this time as well. Their most proximate attempt was during the 20/21 season where they participated in the playoffs under Steve Cooper’s guidance. However, their performance has been lackluster since then.

Currently, they hold the 16th spot in the table with 36 points. They unexpectedly secured a win against Hull on the road in the previous round, putting an end to a disappointing sequence of four consecutive losses in all competitions. Striker Liam Cullen scored the only goal of the match just 11 minutes in, which ended up being the decisive factor in the game.

Conversely, after a string of impressive outcomes in the previous month, Leeds moved a notch closer to achieving the second position in the Championship, paving the way for a direct entry into next season’s PL. They predictably triumphed over bottom-ranked Rotheram in their latest match with a 3:0 score, and it’s important to highlight their overtime victory against Plymouth, securing their spot in the FA Cup’s 1/8 finals. They will face off against Chelsea in this round, likely standing a good chance based on the performance of the Stamford Bridge team this season.

Swansea vs Leeds pick: LEEDS TO WIN

Leeds are currently in the best form across the entire league. It’s hard to imagine them missing the chance to win this match and potentially pile more pressure on second-place Southampton with an additional three points. Considering all competitions, the visiting team has won 8 out of their last 9 matches with an impressive goal difference of 21:3. They managed to keep a clean sheet in 6 of those 9 games, making it a tough task for the home team to score against them. All Leeds players are contributing, including long-injured striker Patrick Bamford, who has recently been in good form terrorizing Premier League goalkeepers. All signs indicate this will be a lopsided match, and we don’t doubt the visitors’ victory.
