79% - Newcastle's Pass-Completion Percentage, Compared To Swansea's 92%
Highlighting the point that Swansea were far more accurate in everything they attempted on Saturday, the home side attempted 635 passes and completed 586 of those - giving them a completion ratio of 92%. Newcastle, meanwhile, attempted 333 passes and completed just 262 of them - meaning the away side had a completion ratio of just 79%. The Magpies also only made two "key passes" all afternoon, compared to the Swans' 18.
