Bristol City play host to Swansea City in round 31 of EFL Championship on Sunday

Round 31 of the EFL Championship comes to an end on Sunday as Bristol City play host to Swansea City at the Ashton Gate Stadium. The Swans head into the weekend without a win in their seven outings since the turn of the year and will be looking to end this dire run.

Bristol City failed to move into the playoff places last Saturday when they were held to a 1-1 draw by Oxford United at the Kassam Stadium.

This followed a 2-1 home victory over Blackburn Rovers on January 25, a result which saw their three-game winless run in all competitions come to an end.

Bristol City have picked up 10 wins and 12 draws from their 30 Championship matches this season to collect 42 points and sit 10th in the table, three points adrift of the final playoff spot.

Swansea City, on the other hand, failed to stop the rot last weekend as they fell to a 2-0 defeat against Coventry City at the Swansea.com Stadium.

Luke Williams’ men have lost five straight matches across all competitions, including a 3-0 defeat against Southampton in the FA Cup third round on January 12.

This slump in form has seen Swansea plunge into 17th place in the league table with 34 points from their 30 games, just seven points above the relegation zone.


Bristol City vs Swansea City Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
