Aston Villa are tenth in the Championship and two places above their opponents Swansea City, Both are trying their hardest to find some consistency and get into the promotion play-offs. Villa have only won one of their last six games and while only one of their eight home games has been lost, three of the last four have ended in score-draws. The last five games at Villa Park have seen a massive 29 goals scored with only 15 of those being scored by the home team. Only two teams have scored more goals in the Championship this season than Villa but only three have conceded more. 

Swansea City have had an inconsistent season so far with 10 wins and 10 defeats in the Championship. They had gone three games without a win before beating bottom three side Reading 4-1 away on Tuesday. Away form has also been inconsistent with five wins but also five defeats. Their last four away games have all had over 2.5 goals scored in them with 18 goals scored. This doesn't look like being a low-scoring game and the tip is for over 2.5 goals to be scored.
