Fulham v Swans

It’s Fulham away this Wednesday, one of two matches before another two week International break.
Fresh from their one season stint in the Premier League, they’ve kept all their players and added right winger Harry Wilson from Liverpool for £12.6m and centre-forward Rodrigo Muniz from Flamengo-Brazil for £7.2m.
Marco Silva who previously managed Hull, Watford and Everton was appointed Fulham’s head-coach in July this year after Scott Parker departed by mutual consent to take over at Bournemouth.
Fulham’s record this season is P9 W5 D2 L2 F19 A8 and they sit 4th in the table on 17 points.
Swans record is P9 W2 D4 L3 F8 A11 and they sit 17th in the table on 10 points, and 5 of our goals have been scored by Joel Piroe.
Fulham’s danger-man as always is Aleksandar Mitrovic and unfortunately he likes scoring against us!
Remember Feb 2020, the 94’ goal he scored, the season they got promoted, in their 1-0 win against us at The Cottage.
That was just minutes after Woodman had saved his penalty.
Our back four that day was Naughton-Cabango-Rodon-Bidwell.
He’s joint top of the scoring charts on 7 goals, with Harry Wilson and Fabio Carvalho on 3 goals apiece. So one player to closely mark.
 
Fulham v Swansea Wed 29 Sept 19:45
Live on Sky Sports Main Event 19:30 and Sky Sports Football 19:30.
It’s not on SwansTV in UK, only ‘dark market’ regions.
 
Swansea City: Ben Hamer, Ben Cabango, Kyle Naughtin, Ryan Manning, Ethan Laird, Flynn Downes, Matt Grimes (c), Jake Bidwell, Olivier Ntcham, Jamie Paterson, Joel Piroe.
Subs: Steven Benda, Jay Fulton, Korey Smith, Brandon Cooper, Liam Cullen, Joel Latibeaudiere, Liam Walsh.
 
Defence having a mare first half, back three hopeless. Mitrovic hat-trick, pathetic marking by Naughton. Cabango outpaced. Manning nowhere, we’re wide open. Swans totally outclassed. This could be a cricket score, we’re relegation fodder playing like this.

HT: 3-1
 
FT: 3-1
Awful performance, could have been five or six goals.
First goal offside
Second goal, weak pass from Cabango intercepted
Third goal dreadful marking
