Previous Meetings

Following a 1-0 away win in October this season, Watford are looking to complete a league double over Swansea City for the first time since the 1982/83 top-flight campaign.

Swansea City have won two of their last three away league games against Watford (L1), as many victories as across their previous eight trips to face the Hornets (D1 L5).

Swansea have never lost successive second tier games against Watford in the Football League. Indeed, the Swans have won eight of the previous 15 such encounters (D3 L4).

Watford have lost all three of their home league games in 2024 – the only previous time they’ve started a calendar year outside the top-flight with a longer such run was in 1972 in the second tier, losing each of their first seven home league games to begin that year.

Swansea have won each of their last two league games, as many as in their previous 10 (D2 L6).
