Sunderland, Recent FormThe Sunderland squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Birmingham City, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with 49% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Birmingham City managed 16 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 8 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have conceded at least one goal in 12 of their 16 home games this season.
They have had a good run of form at Stadium of Light recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Swansea City, Recent FormSwansea City won't feel too deflated by the 2-1 home defeat to Ipswich Town, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Ipswich Town's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
With 4 goals scored in their last 6, they might have expected more points from that run of matches, but having conceded 13 goals along the way, things haven't been going their way points-wise. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, this season they have scored in 14 of their 16 games on the road.
Having clocked up 5 defeats from their previous 6 matches, recent form is something they will certainly be looking to change.
Liam Cullen has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Sunderland.
Sunderland will have been disappointed not to take all 3 points in their last league match against Swansea City with the game ending in a 0-0 draw.
The Swans have scored in each of their past 3 encounters away from home in the league against Sunderland. The Black Cats have struggled to break down the Swansea defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings. The Black Cats have struggled to keep Swansea at bay when these two teams have met at Stadium of Light, during the last 3 times they have hosted Swansea in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
When playing at home, Sunderland have lost the last 2 times they've faced Swansea in the league and have failed to win any of their last 6 encounters.
