On Saturday, Bristol City make the short trip westward to face Swansea City at Liberty Stadium. I do believe they will return home empty handed and I find great value in the visitors scoring few goals here.

Swansea City

The Swans battle at the top of the table and look particilarly good at home, collecting an impressive 13 points from the 5 most recent home games, conceding only 2 goals in the process.

Only 7 teams have conceded fewer shots than Swansea so far this season, Swansea conceding on average 10.67 shots per game.
Only Watford have conceded fewer shots on target than Swansea so far this season, Swansea conceding on average 2.77 shots on target per game.

Looking at home games explicitly, the numbers are even more impressive:
No other team have conceded fewer shots on target than Swansea at home this season, Swansea conceding on average 2.50 shots on target per game at Liberty Stadium.

Looking at the four most recent league games specifically, Swansea have conceded on average 2.50 shots on target per game which is in line with Swansea's numbers for the season so far and also below the league average during the same period of time.

The hosts muster a fit and healty squad and have the best shot stopper in the league this season, young Newcastle loanee Frederick Woodman saving some 77% of the faced shots on target.

Bristol City

The Robins are on a dreadful run of form and have picked up a mere 3 point in the 5 most recent games, scoring only 3 goals.
Bristol City did however appoint Nigel Pearson as new manager on 22 February, stirring up the mix a bit.

No other team have created fewer shots than Bristol City so far this season, Bristol City creating on average 8.06 shots per game.
Only Sheffield Wednesday, Birmingham City and Nottingham Forest have created slightly fewer shots on target than Bristol City so far this season, the South West England team creating on average 2.94 shots on target per game.

Looking at the four most recent league games specifically, Bristol City have created on average 2.25 shots on target per game which is below Bristol City's numbers for the season so far and also below the league average during the same period of time. In fact, only Rotherham United display slightly worse attacking numbers than in recent weeks.

The visitors still miss their two most profilic attacking options in attacking midfielder Andreas Weimann and forward Chris Martin due to injuries.
