Preview: Swansea City vs. Hull City

Swansea City vs. Hull City

Michael Laudrup is bound to be a little disappointed with how his Swansea City side have performed so far this season.

They currently sit 11th in the Premier League table, which is just one place above Monday evening's visitors to the Liberty Stadium Hull City.

What's more, their form in front of their own supporters has not been overly positive. From seven outings, they've won just two of them, drawing three and losing the other two.

Laudrup may be able to call upon last season's leading goalscorer Michu, who has been out of action since the beginning of November with an ankle complaint. Striker Wilfried Bony is a doubt, though, because of a hamstring injury.

Meanwhile, visiting boss Steve Bruce has centre-back Curtis Davies available for selection following a one-match suspension.

The Tigers last won away at Swansea back in 2004 when both sides were in what is now known as League Two.

Recent form

Swansea: DLDWLW

Hull: McGregor; Rosenior, Davies, Figueroa; Elmohamady, Meyler, Huddlestone, Livermore, Brady; Graham, Sagbo

Sports Mole says: 2-1
