Swans v Plymouth Tue 24 Aug 19:00 EFL Carabao Cup Second Round
Exactly five weeks after meeting Plymouth in a pre-season friendly at Home Park on 20 July with Steve Cooper in charge we meet them once again in the Carabao Cup.
That day we won 1-2 there, with Whittaker and Cullen scoring first half goals, Hardie replying for the hosts.
Plymouth had the better chances and should have at least drawn the match. Apart from the first half spell when we scored the two goals, it was the usual bore fest from the Swans. Both centre-backs Bennett and Latibeaudiere were poor and it was Bennett’s mistake for their goal by Hardie. The team that day was:
Steven Benda; Kyle Naughton (Dan Williams 73), Ryan Bennett (Scott Butler 73), Joel Latibeaudiere (Ben Margetson 79), Jake Bidwell; Jay Fulton (Liam Walsh 46), Matt Grimes capt (Korey Smith 61); Morgan Whittaker (Kyle Joseph 73), Yan Dhanda (Joel Piroe 61) Jamal Lowe (Ryan Manning 73); Liam Cullen.
These were the match highlights:

Last Saturday in League One Plymouth beat Shrewsbury away 0-3 with their danger man Ryan Hardie again on the scoresheet with two goals. They sit in 8th position in the table with 7 points from 4 games.
In the Carabao Cup First Round they beat Championship side Peterboro on their own patch 0-4 with that man Hardie scoring two of their goals.
This will not be an easy match, especially with us being in transition phase, still getting used to a new style of play under a new head-coach.
