ZAN Vipotnik's first-half goal fired Swansea City to a 1-0 victory over Bristol City at the Swansea.

- PRESS ASSOCIATION

Defeated Robins return home empty-handed

Com Stadium on Saturday.The Slovenian was once again in the right place at the right time, lashing home from close range after 26 minutes to earn the Jacks all three points.

It was a 16th goal of the season for the Championship's leading marksman, his 12th goal in 16 home league appearances and his sixth goal in his last four home games.

The strike also secured Swansea their seventh win from their last eight fixtures at home - the other was a draw - and maintains their hopes of a real push for the Championship playoffs.

Bristol City, however, will count themselves unfortunate to have left South Wales empty-handed having had the better of the chances, and they were also twice denied by the woodwork while Swansea's goal came from the direct result of some of their own defensive misfortune.
