Sunday’s tea-time kick-off pits two unbeaten sides together, as Swansea City welcome Manchester United to the Liberty Stadium. The Swans recorded a comfortable 2-0 win over Newcastle United in their last home match-up but now face a United unit that’s yet to concede a goal this term.

Garry Monk’s new-look attack has carved through the opposition with consummate ease, placing second for attempts (56) and joint-first for big chances (eight) and shots on target (24). This forward impetus has been balanced by a rigidity at the back, as evidenced by the fact they’ve conceded the fewest shots inside the box (11) of any side.

As for the Red Devils, they’ve limited their opponents to just 22 shots and one big chance in three match-ups. Having kicked off the campaign with back-to-back 1-0 wins, they’ve done just enough on the attacking front, ranking in the bottom half for shots inside the box (19) and shots on target (11).

    Had Mane to Yaya -4 in my mind all week..... good job I didn't listen to my mind!

      still would do it, just transferred him out for pedro, nice little send of... did look very good, but not liking the fixtures...

      1. For Fuchs Sake
        11 years, 2 months ago

        yeah glad I waited a week

    Azpi-Cedric-Coates-Huth-Saylor
    Sanchez-Silva-Mahrez-Ayew-Fletcher
    Benteke-Aguero-Sakho.
    +0.9ITB

    Should I pull the trigger on Azpi>Kolarov or should I wait?

    Have Mata + Fabianski.
    Mata scoring big today would be a good differential.

    THANK YOU SAINTS!!!!! That was so needed.

      1. JJO

        Doubled my gw score

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Same here. 28 to 57 after BAPS.

  7. Syd.
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I have United in my Acca

  8. Bubz
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Gomis and Depay playing, Williams and Shaw on my bench. 0-0 would be in keeping with this season so far.

  9. BantamPhil
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A problem with Pelle is he misses too many chances to get bonus points

    1. Nickk
      11 years, 2 months ago

      That's very true. But, it's also encouraging he has so many opportunities. He only needs a good day and 3/5 shots could go in.

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      11 years, 2 months ago

      This. I owe Mane and Pelle and thinking I'll hold Mane one more week, but sell Pelle this.

  10. Reedy
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Behind the coach today - I benched Gomis

    1. Reedy
      11 years, 2 months ago

      couch even

  11. jam sandwich
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Swansea 2 - 3 United

    Gomis x2, no assists Shaw x2, Ayew OG

    1. Jazz!
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Really hope that happens!

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Is that a prediction ?

      1. Jafooli
        11 years, 2 months ago

        No that's the result 😎

        1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
          11 years, 2 months ago

          When they call it fantasy football this is not what they had in mind 😉

          1. Jafooli
            11 years, 2 months ago

            😀

  12. Nickk
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I'm probably going to wildcard for GW5.. Should I activate the WC now? Or after the internationals?

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Now and catch some price rises starting tonight

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Now and play the price rise game to earn some money

  13. The Chosen One...
    11 years, 2 months ago

    United's best XI this (assuming DDG goes)

  14. Jazz!
    11 years, 2 months ago

    If Gomis scores twice I can be first in my ML 🙂

    I was joint 5th but because of Mane I skipped to 3rd. Chance of Gomis scoring twice?

  15. JJO
    11 years, 2 months ago

    1-0 Siggy (no assist) would be nice

  16. DV8R

    Depay -> Pedro a no brainer?

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I did it for a -4 last week so hoping Depay does nothing so it has no impact on points I would have had/have. I want pedro long term and don't fancy Man U or their fixtures.

  17. bobinjo
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Montero MIA ?

  18. cheeky_ash
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I think this one's going to be quite high scoring for some reason?

    2-3 to Man U...I can see Depay and Gomis getting on the scores her. ..well I hope so as I have both!

  19. davies
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Worth holding Pelle another GW?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Going back and forth on it. Depends who you would bring in for him

      1. davies
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Wilson the obvious choice

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          11 years, 2 months ago

          In that case yes. I own Pelle and WIlson, so i have a different dilemna

    2. Kered
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yes. If your desperate and want to trade do it. But if you need work elsewhere on the team I would keep him another week

  20. Jazz!

    Man City have officially announced Kevin De Bruyne on a 6 Year Deal.

  25. Shrimp On The Barb

  26. Make United Great Again
    11 years, 2 months ago

    @Squawka: DONE DEAL: Manchester City have signed Kevin De Bruyne from Wolfsburg on a six-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

    1. Would an idiot do that?
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Wow!

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Think I'll be waiting and watching him for now. Already have 3 City

    3. funnyoldgame
      11 years, 2 months ago

      more options for our midfield dilemmas!

    4. Del Griffith
      11 years, 2 months ago

      £59 million?.... and Chelsea sold him for £19 million a year ago

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Supply and demand, it's a wonderful thing.

    5. Syd.
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Sweet 🙂

  27. Nickk
    11 years, 2 months ago

    There's no point getting Targett in is there? Bertrand will be back for GW5?

  28. Del Griffith
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Is Pedro going to stay at 9.5 forever no matter how many transfers in he gets, it looks the price guy know he priced him too high so has put a ban on him going up !!
