Swansea City v Liverpool Sky Sports 1 KO 8:00pm

16-09-2013 10:37AM#1This is my 1st match thread of the new season, If Liverpool loose tonight I want the mods to ban me for 1 week from the soccer forum :P
With Valencia on Thursday, will Swansea's Europa League adventure prove to be a Premier League distraction? The fans may prefer a long cup run, but the club need only look to Newcastle to see how European ambition can endanger top-flight status. Liverpool have no such distractions, and after sitting out England duty, Daniel Sturridge should be fit as they seek to preserve their 100% record. Toby Moses
Kick-off Monday 8pm
Venue Liberty Stadium
Last season Swansea 0 Liverpool 0
Live Sky Sports 1
Referee M Oliver
This season G2, Y6, R0, 3.0 cards per game
Odds H 13-5 A 6-5 D 5-2

I think we will see Moses come in for Aspas, Wisdom for Johnson and the rest of the team remain the same as the last game. I'm not sure if Sakho will be thrown in for Skrtel, I would like to see him there but BR might just leave that change till Saturday's game at Anfield.10

Some people never learn, leave it to the professionals!

The final game of the 4th PL weekend reaches its touchy-feely denouement tonight as Swansea host Liverpool, the former in need of a bit of a boost in the nascent table but also thinking of their first ever EL group game against Valencia on Thursday. Swansea have not had to balance resources like this before and a decent result on Thursday might well be a more pressing concern in the scheme of things. All that said I'm sure they will put out a stronger side than was the case before the League Cup final when Liverpool thumped them 5-0.
As for the visitors, a number of players are considered marginal - Sturridge, Kolo, Allen and maybe Kelly (fitness). New boys Sakho and Ilori are not likely to be in the squad though Moses probably will be.0 -

Edit : Didn't see the thread, just scrap my thread and merge with Mike's. I don't get the ban if we loose then :P0 -

Reeeally looking forward to this tonight. The gf is super-heavily pregnant, so knowing my luck she'll go into labour 2 mins from KO.
Either that or I'll watch the whole thing, we'll lose and I'll be like a dog for the night after hyping myself up all day weekend international break.

In keeping with my awesome predictions for the last 2 games...messinkiapina wrote: »Bad feeling about this one. There will be goals and I think Villa will nick it.

I reckon 5-0 to Swansea
Seriously though...I'll say 2-20 -
Going for a 0-2 win .
We have a much stronger team this year by far . Time to show now the reason we got rid of Cole , Carroll , Downing , Shelvey and that type of player.
Team should be full of confidence and playing for a draw should not be our only option !
Hopefully we have a full squad to pick from?
What's the news on Sturridge ?
Can he do it again ? Be really nice to get another after his break
