Swansea City vs Wrexham

It is an all-Welsh affair in the English Championship as Swansea City host Wrexham in a Friday night fixture.

Both teams are battling in the bottom half of the table, and the hosts will be keen to make their home games count. They should show their quality in front of their fans, with the visitors often struggling on their travels.

Swansea City News

Swansea City head into this clash off the back of a 2-1 defeat at Stoke City in their previous Championship fixture. Vitor Matos’ team are now winless in eight of their last 10 matches, although they have won at least one half in three of the last four fixtures on this run.

Sitting just four points above the bottom three, the task for Swansea City will be to put more daylight between themselves and the relegation zone. The good news is that they appear to be getting things right at home, having won their last two matches in front of their fans.

Swansea City have some quality going forward and have scored first in four of their last five matches. However, they often struggle to keep things tight at the back and are without a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 fixtures.

Wrexham News

Wrexham are just two points off the top half and will be keen to rise in the table. However, their recent form has been underwhelming, failing to win their last four matches and playing out a 2-2 home draw with Watford in their previous fixture.

One of the problems for Wrexham is the string of draws lately, having been held in three of their last four matches. Phil Parkinson's team are winless in their last seven away matches, with five of those fixtures also ending in draws.

One positive for Wrexham is their attacking displays, having scored in seven of their last 10 matches. However, they are without a clean sheet in the last four fixtures on this run.

Head to Head

Wrexham have eight wins and one draw, while Swansea City have picked up just three victories in the last 12 matches. The last meeting between both teams came in 2006, with the visitors claiming a 2-1 victory.

Verdict

Swansea v Wrexham

Swansea City will be keen to make their home games count, and having won at least one half in three of their last four matches, a repeat could be expected. Having also opened the scoring in four of their last five matches, they could be backed to grab the first goal here.

Both teams have shown some vulnerability at the back lately and could be tipped to score on Friday.
