Match Preview
Under the leadership of Scott Parker, Burnley is showing strong determination in their fight for promotion to the Premier League. By retaining key players, the club has clearly stated its ambitions for a return to the top flight, and the opening matches of the Championship have confirmed the "Clarets'" resolve to battle for promotion. Currently, Burnley sits in 5th place, six points behind league leaders Sunderland.
In the first 14 matches of the season, the team has suffered just two losses, securing six victories. However, in the last five rounds, the club has managed only one win, along with three draws and one loss. In their most recent match, Burnley played away against West Bromwich Albion, finishing in a 0-0 draw.
Swansea City, on the other hand, struggled in the previous Championship season, finishing in 14th place, only seven points clear of the relegation zone. They began the new campaign with a narrow away defeat to Middlesbrough, conceding a penalty.
However, in subsequent games, the team improved its form and is now in 9th place in the standings, just three points shy of the top 6. In their last match, Swansea hosted a tough Watford side and secured a 1-0 victory.
