Swansea v Burnley

[jackaway]

Swansea v Burnley Saturday 15 March 15:00
Wednesday night’s unlucky defeat at Watford, in which one mistake led to the only goal of the match, resulted in our first defeat in four matches.
It was a relatively poor first-half for the Swans and Franco’s crazy pass-back straight to Watford’s Tom Ince which led to that gift of a goal will give him nightmares. The second-half we more or less dominated but just couldn’t find that elusive equaliser. What we can’t fault though is the effort the players put in to try and salvage the match.
There is little recovery time between matches and with the players not arriving home until the early hours of Thursday morning it’s a tough ask for them to go again on Saturday. Will Sheehan juggle the team or stick with the same selection he’s played since taking temporary charge?
Darling missed the Watford match after going off injured against Boro but it’s being reported that he will be fit for Saturday. Just as well because his replacement at Watford, loanee Hannes Delacroix, is unable to play against his parent club.
It’s a huge match coming up then as we welcome high-flying Burnley, the team with the best defence in the Championship, helped in no small way by ex-Swan, right-back Connor Roberts. They have only conceded 6 goals in their 18 away games this season.
Burnley will have the advantage of an extra recovery day as they played Tuesday night, a 1-1 home draw with West Brom.
