Bitesize Prediction: Bristol City vs Swansea City – 09/02/25

Competition: Championship

Market: Bristol City draw no bet

Odds: 4/9 @ 1xBet

Looking to make an immediate return to winning ways this weekend, Bristol City will welcome Swansea to Ashton Gate on Sunday lunchtime.

Starting with the hosts, while Bristol City might have snatched a 1-1 stalemate away at Oxford United last week, the Robins are seeking some much-needed stability. Despite signing off January with an impressive 2-1 victory at home against Blackburn, that is the only win that Liam Manning’s men have collected from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Watching their FA Cup adventure come to an end on January 11th following a 2-1 defeat against Premier League outfit Wolves, the former MK Dons boss has not seen his squad record back-to-back wins since opening the New Year. Watching their play-off dreams take a real blow over the past month and dropping out of the top-six chase, Bristol City will be excited to make a return to Ashton Gate here. Despite their issues on the road, Manning’s side have gained a reputation for their success at Ashton Gate. In fact, Sunday’s hosts have won all of their previous four Championship battles in front of their own supporters by an aggregate score of 7-1.

As for the visitors, despite signing off 2024 with consecutive Championship victories, Swansea have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Continuing to tumble down the table and coming under a huge amount of scrutiny, Luke Williams’ men have lost each of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Last seen putting in another worrying performance as they fell to a 2-0 loss at home against Swansea, the former Notts County boss has a huge amount of pressure on his shoulders. Heading into the New Year with a nightmare 5-1 drumming against Norwich, Sunday’s guests have also put just a single Championship point on the board since December 29th. Crashing out of the FA Cup on January 18th following a 3-0 loss against Premier League struggles Southampton, Swansea have shown some glaring defensive issues. It should be highlighted, Williams’ side have conceded 15 goals on their five-match losing rut. Likewise, landing just a sole point from their last three meetings against Bristol City, we are backing a home draw no bet.
