Swansea City’s ‘Jack Army’ face the long and early trip up north as they face bottom of the table Hull City in the Saturday lunchtime kick off. Hull will be desperate to put their horror run of form to an end here, with new manager Ruben Selles in search of his first 3 points as tigers boss.
The Swans, known for their possession-based style of play, will look to dominate the midfield and dictate the tempo of the game. Manager Luke Williams will be counting on key players to deliver, especially in the final third, with the likes of Ronald and Zan Vipotnic looking for goals.
The Tigers have shown glimpses of their attacking prowess this season, however they have not shown it enough at all, with that being one of the reasons why they are languishing at the foot of the second tier.
Williams’ Swans will be keen to bounce back after last weekend's incredibly disappointing result on home turf, after they blew a 2-0 lead to high flying Sunderland, dealing a massive blow to their playoff goals. Prior to that, they had been on a decent run, picking up 8 points from the four games prior, however those games have come against more favourable sides, such as Portsmouth, Plymouth and Derby county.
Predicted Lineup; Ivor Pandur; Lewie Coyle, Charlie Hughes, Alfie Jones, Ryan Giles; Kasey Palmer, Regan Slater; Steven Alzate, Ryan Longman, Abu Kamara; Joao Pedro
Injuries have hit The Tigers hard this season, with winger Liam Millar’s long term absence being a massive blow for them, and it has coincided with their poor form. The form of summer signings Abu Kamara and Kasey Palmer has been a bright spark in a very poor season, and that will give manager Selles something to work with moving forwards.
Predicted Lineup: Lawrence Vigouroux; Josh Tymon, Harry Darling, Ben Cabango, Josh Key; Matt Grimes, Goncalo Franco; Ronald, Liam Cullen, Myles Peart-Harris; Zan Vipotnik
Luke Williams’ possession based style relies heavily on the midfield duo of matt Grimes and Goncalo Franco, with this being a key battleground in this game at the K-COM stadium. Josh Tymon and Josh Key have both been impressive, especially flying forward in recent weeks, and will look to control the wide areas and create chances for Vipotnik up front.
