Match: Premier League: Chelsea – Swansea City Preview

Date: Saturday, 25 February, 2017

Start time: 15:00

Chelsea hosts Swansea City at “Stamford Bridge” in a game from Premier League.

Preview:

Chelsea’s lead on top of the league has been reduced to 8 points because the Blues lost their last game on the road against Burnley. Chelsea won 6 of their last 8 games, including 3 cup wins and a prestigious draw at Anfield. The loss against Tottenham at White Hart Lane is their only defeat in their last 19 games. Since Antonio Conte changed his system to three in the back, the Blues have won 11 games, scoring 35 goals in them. 9 of their 11 victories have seen them win by at least 2 goals. Diego Costa is one of the candidates to win the Premier League goalscorer of the season, having scored 15 goals so far.

Swansea have been performing very well since appointing Paul Clement. They have won 3 of their last 4 games, including a 3-2 win at Anfield against Liverpool and 2 home wins over Southampton and Leicester. Although they have improved much, they are still relegation-threatened as they are just 4 points above the relegation zone. Swansea lost 9 of their last 12 away games and this is good news for Chelsea who have been almost perfect at home this season.
