Swansea vs Leeds Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 13/02/2024, 06:28  by Ian John in Championship Predictions

Swansea City face Leeds United on Tuesday night in a game that will be a real test for the home side. The Swans will be boosted after a fine away win at Hull City at the weekend, a 1-0 victory on the road coming courtesy of Liam Cullen's 11th minute strike. It was a big win for the Welsh team as it ended a run of five games without a win, and a four game losing streak. Luke Williams will be pleased with how his team performed on Humberside, despite having less of the ball, they created more chances and had more shots and more shots on target than the hosts and were good value for the win. Goals are a problem for Swansea at home though with just 17 scored in their 15 games so far (19 conceded). Their last win over Leeds at home came back in the 2011 season, with a comfortable 3-0 win, but in the two games since in Swansea they have drawn 2-2 and lost 0-1. 

Another excellent performance at the weekend by Daniel Farke's Leeds United team saw them put bottom club Rotherham to the sword earning a 3-0 victory thanks to a first half strike from Patrick Bamford and a second half brace from Crysencio Summerville. The win preserved Leeds unbeaten record at home where they have won 11 and drawn 4 of their 15 games this season, tying Leicester City for the most points taken on home soil in the Championship this season. The Whites are now unbeaten in their last nine games in all competitions, eight of those games victories, and they have drawn just one of those games. A set of results which has propelled them into the promotion battle alongside Leicester City, Southampton and Ipswich. If they are to keep pace with those teams, another win will be required here on Tuesday night.
