PREM: Manchester City v Swansea preview

Manchester City v Swansea preview

Swansea will be looking to make it three Premier League wins on the spin when they face Manchester City.

Recently appointed head coach Paul Clement has had an immediate impact, sending his team out to win successive Premier League games for the first time this season, moving them out of the relegation places.

However, the Swans still possess the leakiest defence in the league having conceded 52 goals this campaign.

 

They have only kept one clean sheet in their last 14 league matches and will be tested against Pep Guardiola's side, who hammered West Ham 4-0 at the London Stadium on Wednesday night.

Despite being off the pace in the title race, City are two points better off than after 23 games last season and have beaten Swansea in six of their last seven meetings.

 

Willy Caballero could keep his place in goal for Manchester City's Premier League clash at the Etihad.

The Argentine has been preferred to Claudio Bravo for City's last two games and could be retained after keeping clean sheets in both.

 

Top scorer Sergio Aguero could return to the starting line-up after being on the bench in midweek. City have no injury issues aside from long-term absentee Ilkay Gundogan.

For Swansea, Clement could name an unchanged starting line-up for a third consecutive game.

Leon Britton has returned to training following a calf injury and is expected to make the squad.
