Swansea 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.

With fourteen games to go in the EFL Championship for Swansea City it will be the home games that will determine any progress already made come May 2nd, the final game against Charlton Athletic. IF the current patterns continue. Seven of those fourteen are at home, but it’s those away fixtures which will impact on the Swans final league position the most. It has been a struggle away from the swansea.com even under Vitor Matos, so that most certainly has to change from here on in. For those at least who believe this Swansea side can actually reach a play off spot.

Today we have what some may call a ‘derby’ fixture.The location of Bristol to Swansea makes them the closest English side, so maybe that has some relevance. Their real derby we are told is with Cardiff City if they are to be believed, that game has seen a kind of leap year this season. Although we can expect Cardiff City to make a return from the third division to a far higher level next season.
