Swansea City will look to boost their hopes of automatic promotion
Swansea City will look to boost their hopes of automatic promotion

After a disappointing draw with Blackburn Rovers, Swansea City travel to Kenilworth Road to face Luton Town in an EFL Championship clash on Saturday.

The Swans only managed a 1-1 draw at Ewood Park against Blackburn in their last game. Bradley Dack scored the opener for Rovers in that game, but the Swans hit back straightaway through an Andre Ayew penalty.

However, as in the two previous games, Swansea couldn't eke out a winner. That draw left them in third spot in the Championship table, with 66 points from 34 games. They are level on points with Watford, with a game in hand.

Steven Cooper's side must be considered favorites to take the second automatic promotion spot. However, with 12 games to go and considering the unpredictable nature of the Championship, Swansea cannot take things for granted at this stage.

After two straight wins against Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest, Luton were thrashed 3-0 by leaders Norwich City in their last game.

They are currently 16th in the Championship standings, with 44 points from 34 games. Their season is veering towards a lower mid-table finish, with not much threat of relegation.
