Swansea City boss Micheal Laudrup expects Manchester United to come out fighting

Michael Laudrup believes that his Swansea City side will face a Manchester United backlash this weekend.

The Swans will take on David Moyes's team for a second time in six days at Old Trafford after they booted the Red Devils out of the FA Cup with a 2-1 win in the third round.

The match added to United's recent woes, which has resulted in the club suffering three defeats in the row.

"I think it will be more difficult than last week," Laudrup said in a press conference. "They lost in the League Cup as well and I expect the United team to come out and really go at us.

"They have to win this game so we have to be ready. It will be a tough game again. They won't like what they hear about losing three in a row."

United are currently seventh in the Premier League table after 20 games, while Swansea reside in 13th.
