Swansea Leeds match preview

Two undefeated teams in the new season meet in the fourth round match, Swansea and Leeds. True, last year’s member of the English first division Swansea drew after two wins in a row, while Leeds won all three so far played matches. Regarding their latest head-to-head, we have to say that they took place eight seasons ago in the same league and then each team won at home.

Swansea

After seven years in the Premier Leageu the Welsh won only the 18th place in the table last year so we are going to see them again in the Championship, where they are doing fine for the time being despite large turnover of players this summer. First of all, Graham Potter has replaced Portuguese coach Carvalhalan at Swansea’s helm, while large number of starters from previous season left.

On the other hand, the only true reinforcements are midfielder Celin and forwards Asoro and McKay and they become starters from the first round, although it is somewhat surprisingly that defender Naughton and forwards Dyer, Routledge and Narsingh haven’t got chance yet. Still, even without them Swansea won two and drew one match in first three rounds, and it is realistic to expect that the same 11 players from the previous match face Leeds, especially as due to injuries still out of action are goalkeeper Nordfeldt and forward Bony.

Probable lineups Swansea: Mulder–Roberts,van der Hoorn, Rodon, Olsson–Carroll, Fer, Celina – Asoro,McBurnie, McKay

Leeds

The guests from Leeds had ended the previous season at the 13th place in the Championship table, meaning it was quite logical for the club management to fire manager Heckingbottom. Instead of him was hired experienced Argentinian coach Bielsa, for whom this is the first job in England. For the time being he is doing quite well as Leeds triumphed in first three rounds, having goal difference 9-2, while in the League Cup it did a routine job against Bolton at home.

Now, they will face one of recent Premier League teams with which they have 0-3 score so they will need lot of courage and luck to finally defeat the Welsh. Regarding the team, we are certain that Biels will send on the pitch the same 11 players after excellent results in three previous matches, especially as at the moment just two players are out of action due to injuries, midfielders Forshaw and Dallas.

Probable lineups Leeds: Peacock-Farrell– Ayling,Berardi,Cooper, Douglas –Klich, Phillips – Hernandez, Saiz, Alioski– Roofe

Verdict:

Both teams had a good start of new season and we expect that their head-to-head be very good and interesting match, probably with goals on both sides of the pitch.
