⭐ Editor's Prediction
This match looks set to be an open one given both sides' styles: Swansea rarely surrender the initiative at home, while West Ham consistently take their chances regardless of the opposition. The seasonal trend speaks for itself - the visitors scored more than 1.5 goals in six of their last seven Championship matches, a figure directly supported by their attacking statistics and general away form. Even accounting for the hosts' solid defence, West Ham's attacking threat could come to the fore again against a direct rival near the top of the table. The bet is West Ham Team Total - Over 1.5. Predicted score: 1-2.
