Southampton v Swansea (FA Cup 3rd Round) Sunday 12 Jan 16:30
Our next match is an FA Cup tie away at Southampton and is a bit of light relief from the intense Championship schedule.
The Saints are not in a good place and have been struggling since gaining promotion to the PL, winning just 1 game in 20 matches.
Their results in the last 7 games are shocking (W0 D1 L6 F2 A19) which includes three hammerings at home
4/12 Southampton 1 - Chelsea 5
15/12 Southampton 0 - Spurs 5
4/1 Southampton 0 - Brentford 5
Ivan Juric is their new head- coach since Dec 24 and is 3 defeats in 3 matches in charge after taking over from Russell Martin. Having spent over 100mill on incoming players last summer and 60mill outgoing they have yet to see any success with such a massive outlay.
For the Swans, bearing in mind we have a Cardiff derby game the following weekend, will we field a full strength team or bring in fringe players. The prize money for winning this match is not to be sniffed at, 115k, plus the TV money, game showing live on BBC2 Wales.
