Championship: Swansea v Fulham
At 3:45 a.m. Beijing time on March 9, 2022, the Championship will play a make-up match, and Swansea will face the leader Fulham at home. Swansea's performance decline this season is very obvious, the team ranked 4th in the league last season, unfortunately, in the promotion play-off fell at the feet of Brentford, regrettably missed the opportunity to rush into the Premier League, and after 33 rounds of league this season, it is currently ranked 16th in the league with 44 points, and there is a 11-point gap with the promotion play-off area, so the gap may be difficult to impact the promotion opportunity, and the 20 points above the relegation zone are worry-free, which shows that Swansea is basically out of "routine" in the remaining fixtures.
Swansea have recently recovered in form and have ended in two consecutive games with victories, the team played Coventry at home in the last round of the league, with 53% possession, 8 shots on goal and 3 shots on target, with Avolovo's second score and Patterson's goal, finally won 3-1. It is worth noting that Swansea have a mediocre home record this season, with 8 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats in 16 league home games, and its home field ranks 14th in the league.
After last season's Premier League "season tour", Fulham returned to the Championship schedule again, fortunately, the team was ashamed and brave, after 34 rounds of the Championship, achieved 22 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses, with 73 points to become the league leader, in the case of 2 rounds of less, 11 points higher than Huddersfield, the lead is more obvious. Fulham can achieve such a record, and the performance of both ends of the attack and defense is inseparable, 34 league scored 84, conceded 29 goals, attack and defense ability are ranked first in the league.
Fulham have been in good form recently, have won 3 consecutive wins, and the last 2 games are "0" to block opponents, the team last round of the league home against the league ranked 4th Blackburn, the possession rate of 63%, 14 shots on goal 4 shots on target, the number of shots on goal is more than 3 times the opponent, with Kobano and Wilson 2 goals, finally won 2-0. It is worth noting that Fulham have been excellent home and away this season and are currently ranked first in the league.
In terms of past encounters between the two teams, Swansea have finished 5-5 in their last 10 meetings against Fulham, with no difference in the past, but lost 1-3 in the first leg of this season. In terms of recent conditions, although Swansea's recent state has picked up, it is debatable in terms of war intentions, while Fulham have been in stable form recently, and the current points lead is obvious.
