Competition: Championship

Market: Swansea draw no bet

Odds: 8/11 @ 1xBet

Looking to extend on their recent purple patch, Swansea will welcome Hull to South Wales on Friday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Swansea might have already accepted that a dramatic late play-off charge is off the cards, Alan Sheehan’s side are signing off the 2024/25 campaign with a real flurry. Skyrocketing themselves into the top-half of the Championship table, it appears that the mood around South Wales is at a red-hot high. Last seen putting in another eye-catching display as they clinched a gritty 1-0 victory away at Sunderland, the Swans have won each of their previous three Championship appearances by an aggregate score of 5-0. With their purple patch underlined by a routine 3-0 romp against Plymouth earlier in the month, Friday’s hosts will be desperate to extend on their recent charge here. It should also be noted, Swansea have put 10 points on the board from their last four second-tier showdowns. Enjoying their most fruitful spell of the campaign and yet to concede a single goal throughout April, Sheehan’s camp will be smelling a real opportunity here.

As for the visitors, while Hull might have opened up the 2024/25 campaign with their sights set on mounting another play-off charge, the Tigers have endeared a public crisis this time around. Despite coming from behind at home against Coventry earlier in the week as they snatched a 1-1 stalemate at the MKM Stadium, Ruben Selles’ men are at the heart of a relegation scrap. Getting Friday’s fixtures underway holding just a three-point buffer from slipping into the drop zone, the former Reading boss has quite the job on his hands. Slumping to a 1-0 loss against Watford in their last showdown outside of Yorkshire, Hull have registered just a single win from their previous five Championship appearances. Signing off March with another 1-0 loss against fellow strugglers Luton, Selles’ squad will be bracing themselves for another stern examination here. Likewise, mustering just a sole away victory over the past couple of months, we are backing a home draw no bet on Friday.
