Seventeenth-placed Swansea City will be looking to beat their highly coveted opponent, Middlesbrough, and have a change in their run of form. Middlesbrough is currently in third place and is in a very great position to gain automatic promotion into the Premier League next season. They will be traveling to the Swansea.com Stadium with the intention of gaining all three points to lower their gap with second-placed Sheffield United and put them under pressure. In this EFL Championship fixture on Saturday night, the Swans will need to pick up three crucial points if they are to avoid the relegation scare been placed 17th in the league with 73 points despite facing a much more improved side, Midllebroufgh who are in third position with 60 points.

Middlesbrough is in stunning form at the moment having lost just a single match in their last five outings in all competitions. Having beaten Reading last time out by 5 goals to nil, they will be adamant to contain their form and beat the Swans easily who haven’t been consistent at all this season. The Boro coach Michael Carrick has done a really good job getting Boro back to where they actually belong and in just a few months’ time, we might see them back in the Premier League. With a lot of hopes for Akpom on whom the fans will be absolutely reliant to get on the scoresheet as he is leading the charts with 21 goals so far.

Swansea City, on the other hand, has been having a very dreadful season up until now being placed at the 17th position of the table and very few believe that they will be able to reach the upper section of the table this season. With just 11 matches to go, they will have to do something really magical to turn the table in their favor. Having just managed 11 wins so far, they will have to start grabbing some crucial victories if they were to maintain their hunt for survival. Having been fighting for promotion for the last few seasons, very few would have predicted that this glorious team would end up in the lower half of the table.
