The historical matchups between Swansea City and Derby County paint an interesting picture. In their last 7 encounters in the Championship:
- Swansea City Wins: 4
- Derby County Wins: 2
- Draws: 1
Notably, Swansea has won 3 of their last 4 home games against Derby, including a crucial 1-0 victory in April 2025. They also secured a 2-1 away win in November 2024. This recent head-to-head record suggests Swansea often finds a way to perform against the Rams, regardless of their league form. A significant trend to observe is that 6 of the last 7 direct encounters between these two sides have seen fewer than 2.5 goals scored, highlighting a history of tight, low-scoring contests.
Our Prediction
Considering Swansea’s struggles in the league this season but their strong recent head-to-head record against Derby, particularly at home, this match presents a complex betting scenario. Derby’s current form is superior, but they historically find it tough against the Swans. The most compelling trend, however, points to a low-scoring affair. Both teams are not prolific scorers this season, with Swansea averaging less than a goal per game. Furthermore, a remarkable 6 out of their last 7 direct meetings have finished with Under 2.5 goals. We anticipate a cautious game where neither side will give much away.
