Wednesday, Swansea receives Manchester City on the occasion of the 8th finals of the FA Cup. Both teams want to reach the quarterfinals.
In previous rounds, Swansea dismissed Stevenage (League Two, 0-2) and Nottingham (Championship, 5-1). Very close to the rise in the Premier League last year, the Welsh team can still believe in its chances of accession this season and occupy the 3rd rank of the Championship. Confidently, André Ayew’s partners have not lost in the last 8 days (6 wins and 2 draws). Last weekend, they dominated, at home, the current leader Norwich (2-0).
Manchester City logically defeated Birmingham (Championship, 3-0) and Cheltenham (League Two, 1-3) in the previous rounds. Pulsive at the very start of the championship, the Citizens have been running at full speed for several weeks now and they are prancing at the top of the Premier League with 1 game less and 5 points ahead of their runner-up. Imperial, Manchester City have won their last 14 games in all competitions. Last weekend, pep Guardiola’s men confirmed their excellent arrangements by gleaning a precious success in Liverpool (1-4).
Three elements are lacking in Swansea for this FA Cup match: they are the usual substitutes Cullen and Routledge and the American striker Arriola arrived this winter, injured. Very solid behind, the Welsh team has the best defense in the Championship (15 goals conceded in 27 games). With Jamal Lowe, the former Marseille player Andre Ayew is the club’s co-top scorer in the league with 9 goals.
Manchester City still has to deal with the forfeits of playing master De Bruyne, defender Aké (injured) and Argentine striker Aguero (covid). The best defense in the Premier League, the Citizens have conceded only 2 goals in the last 10 days.
This meeting will be played behind closed doors.
Uncompromising for many weeks now, Manchester City should win in Wales on Wednesday. Manchester City victory!
