Swansea City vs Leeds United Match Analysis & Prediction
13/02/2024 10:45 pm
Premier League-chasing Leeds United will be looking to make it seven straight wins in the Championship when they travel to Swansea.com Stadium to face Swansea City on Tuesday night.
While the Whites secured another Championship maximum over lowly Rotherham United on Saturday, the Swans achieved a landmark win at Hull City on the same day.
After failing to win league matches against Birmingham City, Southampton, Leicester City and Plymouth Argyle, it was fifth time lucky for Luke Williams as Swansea head coach, with the 42-year-old securing his first Championship victory in charge by beating Hull City 1-0 on Saturday.
Swansea’s first win in any competitions since January 6 has seen them ease worries of a potential relegation battle at the bottom of the Championship standings, with the Swans moving up to 16th at the weekend, now possessing a seven-point buffer over 22nd-placed Queens Park Rangers.
Apart from the narrow victory at the home of Hull City at the weekend, Swansea’s last three victories across all competitions have come at the Swansea.com Stadium, including back-to-back wins over West Bromwich Albion and Morecambe which kick-started the New Year in perfect fashion.
With a little bit of assistance from Patrick Bamford’s arm in the 10th minute, Leeds claimed a 3-0 victory over relegation-threatened Rotherham at Elland Road on Saturday, so the Whites have now won six straight Championship matches since their title-winning campaign under Marcelo Bielsa in the 2019-20 season.
Leeds have been flawless in the Championship since the 1-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion on December 29, with Daniel Farke’s side climbing above stuttering Ipswich Town into third place in the second-tier standings, one point behind Southampton in second and 12 points behind league leaders Leicester.
The Whites have fared admirably on their travels since the turn of the calander year, winning all four of their matches across the Championship and the FA Cup by an aggregate score of 11-1.
Swansea City vs. Leeds United Head to head
In the 11 previous meetings between these two teams, Swansea have claimed four victories while Leeds have won six, and they have drawn once. They have each scored 17 goals in the process.

Swansea City Team News
Swansea are in the midst of an injury crisis at right-back after veteran Kyle Naughton was forced off in the closing stages at Hull City, but the hosts are hoping that the issue is not a serious one.
With both Harrison Ashby and Josh Key out of action centre-back Harry Darling could fill in on the right side of the backline if he is able to recover in time from a muscle strain.

Leeds United Team News
Connor Roberts made his Leeds debut against Rotherham off the bench, with the Burnley loanee currently being kept out of his right-back berth by 17-year-old Archie Gray.
Due to Pascal Struijk’s injury woes, Ethan Ampadu has dropped into the heart of the defence to partner compatriot Joe Rodon, and that should be the case on Tuesday as well.
