The solitary Cardiff away win in the first derby of the season and the solitary Swansea away win in the second derby of the season was in the 1989/90 season.
Of the 9 times we've lost away in the first derby of the season, we've won at home 6 times and drawn twice. Of the 5 times we've lost at home in the first derby, we've won away 4 times and drawn once.
Of the 7 times Swansea have lost away in the first derby of the season, they've won at home 5 times and drawn twice.
On the 11 occasions where the second derby of the season has been in Cardiff, we've only failed to score twice. They've only scored in 4 of those 11 games.
