Everton manager David Moyes has revealed that he has been impressed by Swansea City under Michael Laudrup.
The Dane was appointed as Brendan Rodgers's successor in the summer and has guided the Welsh outfit to ninth in the table, while also reaching the semi-final of the Capital One Cup.
Swansea have earned plenty of admirers for their style of football this season, and Moyes has now joined in with those offering praise ahead of their visit to Goodison Park this afternoon.
"I have been very impressed with Swansea since the start of the season. They got off to a great start," the Scot told reporters.
"You take every game individually and it doesn't matter what has happened in the past, it doesn't count.
"You take every game on its own merit and it's a tough game against Swansea - they have had some really good results."
The Toffees won the corresponding fixture 3-0 at the Liberty Stadium in September.
