On Saturday, 4th May at 14:00 GMT , Swansea City will host
Manchester City at Liberty Stadium for Round 36 of the 2012/2013 English
Premier League.
Swansea have really struggled over the past few months after an
excellent season up to then. It’s tough for a team to maintain
motivation when they are under no pressure of relegation or fighting for
a European place so it’s understandable their performances would drop
off. They will hope to gain a few more points before the end of the
season and finish in the top half.
Manchester City look to have 2 place sewn up with a 6 point lead over 3
place Chelsea. Big changes will happen in Manchester this summer and
could start with manager Roberto Mancini moving on and it’s rumoured
Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini will be brought in to replace him. The
squad also needs freshened up as a failure to add quality to last
season’s title winning team meant they were well behind in the title
race this season.
The Citizens returned to winning ways last week with a 2-1 victory over
West Ham United, but their hold on a second place finish remains in
jeopardy. Chelsea and arsenal are six and seven points behind them and
will be pushing to win-out the season in hopes of at-least claiming a
top four spot. Manchester City has never won at the Liberty Stadium but
will hope to end that streak on Saturday.
