EPL: Swansea City v Brighton preview

Swansea City v Brighton preview

Only goal difference is keeping Swansea out of the Premier League relegation zone ahead of their home clash with Brighton on Saturday.

The Swans have struggled for form of late, winning just one of their last seven top-flight games, although they did produce a spirited display during their 2-1 defeat at Arsenal last time out.

The Welsh club will also take solace from the fact they have an impressive recent record against Brighton, as they are unbeaten in the last five meetings between the two sides and they have not lost a home league match against the Seagulls since 1992.

Forward Tammy Abraham is expected to lead the line on Saturday following his first call-up to the England senior squad, while fellow striker Wilfried Bony will be assessed following five weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring problem.

However, Leon Britton will miss the match due to illness, while Martin Olsson, Renato Sanches and Kyle Bartley remain unavailable due to injury.

Brighton appear to have taken well to life in the Premier League, as they have lost just one of their last five league games and they recorded a 3-0 victory over West Ham in their last away fixture.

The Seagulls are now chasing back-to-back away wins in the top flight for the first time since 1981, while in Glenn Murray they have a striker in form, as he has netted three goals in his last two games.

Midfielder Steve Sidwell is the Seagulls only injury absentee, as both Beram Kayal and Sam Baldock have recovered from long-term layoffs ahead of the trip to South Wales.
