Goal Statistics

Stoke City's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday lunch time, not least because Swansea City have conceded in each of their last 7 Championship outings. A PG of 1.5 for M. Robins's side suggests that run should continue.

A truly dreadful PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Swansea City fans, as should a 5 Championship games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
