Calling it square
Both teams have had identical results recently; they both had no wins in three matches heading into last weekend, and both teams ended their respective winless streaks. In fact, both teams have exactly two wins, a draw and two losses in their last five respective games across all competitions. Additionally, recent meetings between these sides have been even contests; as both teams have three wins apiece in their last six clashes. There isn't much separating the two sides; considering both teams' form, we believe the spoils will be shared at the end of this match.
Goals won't exactly flow
Next up in our tips is an under 2.5 goals tip. Swansea have struggled in front of goal recently; they failed to score in three of their last four games, with just one goal scored in that stretch. Due to their lack of goals, Swansea's games have mostly been on the low scoring side; all of their last six games went below the 2.5 goal mark. As a matter of fact, four of the Swans' last five games went under 1.5. Similarly, Stoke City have had their fair share of low scoring games; five of their last six games went under 2.5. On that note, we shouldn't expect too many goals in this match.
