Stoke City, Recent FormThe Stoke City squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Sheffield Wednesday, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 49% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Sheffield Wednesday who had 6 attempts and 2 on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Alex Neil where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 10 in the same period. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, and this season overall, they have failed to score in 10 of their 20 games.
Stoke City will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row no wins in 6 games.
Swansea City, Recent FormSwansea City will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-1 win in their away outing against Rotherham United. They came away from that fixture with a 70% share of the possession and clocked up 19 attempts on goal with 9 on target, in comparison to Rotherham United, who managed 7 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, away from home this season, they have scored in 9 of their 10 games played.
With 4 wins from their last 6 away matches, they have put together an impressive run of form away from home recently.
Jerry Yates will be hoping to create problems for Stoke City in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Swansea City.
It was not a positive ending for Swansea City last time they met Stoke City in the league, with the game ending in a 1-3 defeat.
The Swans defence has struggled at Bet365 Stadium, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 16 visits.
In the league, Swansea have not won any of their last 4 meetings with Stoke.
Stoke manager Alex Neil has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Sead Hakšabanović (Groin), Emre Tezgel (Unknown) and Ben Wilmot (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Alan Sheehan has a number of injury concerns in his Swansea squad to contend with: Azeem Abdulai (Hamstring), Joe Allen (Leg), Josh Ginnelly (Muscle), Mykola Kukharevych (Knee), Nathanael Ogbeta (Leg) and Nathan Wood (Sprained ankle)
