Here we go.
 Swansea City : Matos faces a huge test 18th Feb 2026 08:00Swansea City set out on a journey of two home games over four days this coming Saturday and then Tuesday evening. Saturday brings Bristol City (12:30pm) and Tuesday, Preston North End (7:45pm) Both games are winnable of course but will prove a lot harder than the two against Portsmouth and Oxford United.  0
 Swans can rise to just three points from the play offs 20th Feb 2026 18:01Austrian, Gerhard Struber brings his Bristol City side to the swansea.com tomorrow lunchtime with an indifferent track record of late, but still in the play off picture. They meet a Swans side who have grabbed the season by the throat since the arrival of head coach, Vitor Matos. This evening we take a step back with tickets still remaining for this fixture. 0
 Swansea City v Bristol City : Match day morning & team news 21st Feb 2026 07:30Swansea City now know if they take the points today they will most certainly be three points outside of the play offs (for a bit anyway) after Blackburn Rovers last ditch goal to defeat Preston last night. Tuesdays visitors Preston North End lost 1-0, so they will be looking to put that right on Tuesday in front of a completely sold out crowd. 0
 Swansea City 1 Bristol City 0 : Swans under par but they still take the points ! 21st Feb 2026 15:37Swansea City most certainly were not at their best for this early afternoon kick off but they still managed to take all three points today. Despite an exceptionally poor completed passes stat (63%) which tells you some of the story, they had courage and endeavour which we wouldn’t have seen before Vitor Matos took over as head coach at the Swans. 0

It's going to be a battle today with a sold out away end, hopefully we will sneak it by the odd goal. Squad selection today will be interesting and could upset a few. |  | | |

Come on the Swans, get the win and shove it up the moaning garden peas. You know who you are.

Having Nunes starting was something many wanted, we talked about that in the week. It’s clear that Josh Tymon and Joel Ward aren’t considered up to the right back role. However, Matos did mention the flexibility of Galbraith. Walta, Ronald and Yalcouyé on the bench could prove the clincher in the second half.

Only surprise in there for me is Eom, maybe taking it as an opportunity to rest Ronald. | | | |

Bristol City looking a very good outfit at the moment. We need to get some control on this game. |  |

Why has the ref sent Franco to the touchline, another useless ref,

1 up H/T.
This Ref though, seeing things that aren't there. | | | |

Ref - He only sees what he wants to see, far too inexperienced for this game. Or just a throbbing incompetent. | |

Yes, some of the fouls against us are dubious at best. Clean game though, no nasty tackles.
Think we’ll need another one at least. They are one bit of luck from getting through on goal with that lump of theirs upfront.
I hope we come out firing from the off in the second half not sit back and hope for the best. | |

Vipotnik
By far the best striker since Boby
What he is doing is incredible
Needs truly looking after
I’m fearful this jerk for a ref might screw us
Just how are these people professional referees | |

Game is too open to call , yes we’re leading but Bristol look dangerous , couldn’t get down to the match today due to family commitments but enjoying the game , our press is impressive to say the least and it looks like every player is committed to the cause. But we do need that second goal | |

Agree Boundy, there's no doubting as to where these commentators opinions are lying, trying not to make it obvious of course. | | | |

Can’t think why you’d think that🤣cracking effort by Bristol , hitting the post , maybe it’s meant to be. Armstrong off for them so one threat if there’s nullified | |

Yes, an impressive result. I thought BC were a very good outfit and on another day…
It was a horrible, horrible game to watch imo. Heart in mouth!
Great 3 points though. | |

Yep , some of ours still give the ball away too easily but today not the day to carp as we were a real team unit
Matos got it wrong at Derby and “ some” complained
He got it absolutely right today so good on him
What a difference Widdell makes
Walta one to get stick in alright | |

Tough win and messy one. Really happy we got that over the line. Yes things to improve but sometimes a win like that means a little more. | | | |

We were the better team
We won
That’s all that matters
Matos, as I’ve stating before, will be hot property very soon
Could do with Idah back though | |

Yes a win was the main thing but I felt we were playing below par today. Possibly Bristol who are a decent team stopped us playing. Several of their players changed positions during the game to counter us, they are very well coached. | | | |

A huge round of 👏 to our defence today.
A huge win which could prove to be season defining.
Take a bow lads | |
