Preview: Swansea City vs. West Bromwich Albion

Swansea City vs. West Bromwich Albion

Swansea City will attempt to move into the top seven in the Premier League when they welcome surprise package West Bromwich Albion to the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday.

The Welsh outfit currently sit ninth in the Premier League table with 17 points, but they could move level with Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal should other results go their way.

West Brom, meanwhile, currently occupy third spot in the table, just four points off leaders Manchester United after their best-ever start to a league season.

Victory for the Baggies could move them into second should Manchester City lose at Wigan Athletic, but they will remain in the top four regardless of their result against Swansea.

Swansea won the corresponding clash 3-0 last season, while they were also triumphant at the Hawthorns in February with a 2-1 success over the Baggies.

The home side will be without long-term absentees Michel Vorm and Neil Taylor, but Leroy Lita could come into focus after recovering from a knee injury. Meanwhile, West Ham have a fully-fit squad to choose from aside from Ben Foster.

Recent form:

Swansea: WDDWD West Brom: LWWWW

Possible lineups:

Swansea: Tremmel; Rangel, Chico, Williams, Davies; De Guzman, Britton; Dyer, Hernandez, Routledge; Michu

West Brom: Myhill; Ridgewell, Olsson, McAuley, Jones; Brunt, Yacob, Morrision, Gera; Odemwingie, Long

Sports Mole says: 1-1
