The hosts have been decent this season, sitting pretty in eighth on the Sky Bet Championship standings. From 24 games, they have amassed a total of 37 points, two points shy of Preston North End in sixth place.

Steve Cooper has been the mastermind behind the pretty incredible campaign that the Swans are enjoying at the moment. He has been praised by fans and the media alike for his exploits at the club, and quite rightly so.

With a game against lowly Barnsley on the cards, Swansea City will set their sights fixated on all three points as they look to break into the division’s playoff places.

Swansea City vs Barnsley Team News

Swansea City were left disappointed on the last match-day against a resilient Brentford side, who huffed and puffed in a bid to snatch all three points from the Jacks. Thankfully, Brentford’s struggles yielded fruits as they eventually posted a 3-1 scorecard.

Steve Cooper set his side properly for an attacking game at Brentford but was left bemused by the outcome of the game. The loss marked their second in the previous five league clashes.

It is worth noting that the Swans were on the road in that game, so the fans will not be beating themselves up so much after the loss. Their club have fared much better at the Liberty Stadium, with five of their ten Championship wins arriving in front of the home support.

To top it all off, the home side have stayed unbeaten in their last two home games, producing a Barcelona-esque display in both games. Known for their eye-catching attacking football, Swansea have drawn admiration from pundits and rival clubs.

Barnsley, on the other hand, have simply been totally out-of-sorts all season. With a single win from their previous 11 away games, it is safe to say they do not stand any chances of pulling off a favorable result against Swansea.

Sitting 23^rd on the standings, level on points with basement club Wigan Atheltic, the Tykes have lost four of their last five away games in the league.

When it comes to h2h encounters between these two teams, the home side clearly have the upper hand. Barnsley have not tasted success against this foe in any of their previous meetings. That alone, places the advantage safely in the courts of the Swans.

The visiting contingent have been one of the worst teams in away form in the league all season. They have struggled to keep their opposition at bay when playing in unfamiliar territory.

With Swansea City firing on all cylinders this season, count on the hosts to edge this one out very comfortably.

Swansea vs Barnsley Predictions

The odds are highly stacked against the Tykes in this fixture versus Swansea City as they clearly do not have it within themselves to muster a favorable result.

As things stand, they have been touted by the media as one of the teams to get relegated come the end of the Championship season. Such has been their lacklustre performances so far this season.

Swansea should clinch maximum points against this foe come Sunday evening, grabbing a couple of goals in the process.
