THE PREDICTION
Bristol City shocked Middlesbrough in midweek after ending a run of seven straight Championship defeats after beating Neil Warnock’s side 1-3 at the Riverside Stadium. Nigel Pearson takes charge for a very tough trip to high-flying Swansea, with the South Wales based outfit currently fourth in the table just one point off the automatic promotion places. Pearson will no doubt make the Robins very tough to break down at the Liberty Stadium and Swansea may be set for a game similar to what they endured last time out, when they beat Coventry 1-0 after breaking the Sky Blues’ resistance in the second half. Just like in that match, expect under 2.5 goals scored here regardless of the outcome.
