1 – There has been just one draw in the last 11 meetings between the sides. 7 – The Swans are unbeaten in seven of the last 10 league games that have started a new calendar year, including the last four. "We have been quite flexible with our shape in the last few games, so we will have a look at Burnley but I want us to bring the same energy. "They are the league leaders, they have been for much of the season, and they gave us our toughest afternoon of the season so far when we played at their place. But the Swans have been on a good run of form at home, losing just once in SA1 since September 13, while a look at the Championship table over the 2022 calendar year shows Martin's side had the fifth-best record of teams who spent the whole 12 months in the second tier.

Head coach Vincent Kompany is hoping his team could stretch their lead at the top of the table as closest rivals Sheffield United are only three points adrift. However, coming up against Burnley could be a challenging task to start the new year.

The Swans were unable to produce another comeback as they were beaten by Vincent Kompany's men in south Wales.

Jay Fulton lashed goalwards from distance, and Muric could only palm the Scot's deflected effort into the path of Cooper who drilled home his fourth goal of the campaign from close range to reinvigorate the home supporters. And the Swans found themselves two goals down midway through the first-half following a lethal break from the Clarets. A loose pass from Ben Cabango was picked off by the lively Nathan Tella who was brought down by Harry Darling. Zaroury mis-controls the ball and Swansea win a throw-in to get back on the ball. And a piece of individual skill from Congreve led to Ntcham finding space, although the Cameroon international drilled wide in injury-time as Swansea were beaten in their opening fixture of the New Year.

This time he looked up and rifled an unstoppable shot that flew through the hands of the stunned Benda in goal. The home striker forced a good save out of Arijanet Muric with his left-footed effort. Swansea slowly worked their way back into the game and by half-time were functioning on their normal possession ratio of 65 per cent.
