    Swansea v Fulham

    One of the toughest matches of the season coming up.
    It’s Fulham, who are racing away at the top of the division, 11 points clear of second placed Huddersfield. They have the highest goals for and the lowest goals against, the former because of the outstanding form of Mitrovic. He’s already surpassed Brentford’s Ivan Toney’s record 31 goals of last season.
    They were relegated from the Premier League last season and have appointed a new manager in Marco Silva last July.
    They’ve mainly kept their squad together and improved on it, with the likes of £12.6m right-winger Harry Wilson from Liverpool, £7.2m centre-forward Rodrigo Muniz from Flamenco, and the loan signings of Liverpool’s right-back Neco Williams and Watford’s central midfielder Domingos Quina.
    Mitrovic scored a hat-trick against us in the corresponding away fixture last September and always seems to score against us. Our back three that day were Cabango, Naughton and Manning, the same back three as last Saturday’s win against Coventry.

    Fulham are in an enviable position and look certain for promotion.
    We need to stop the service to Mitrovic if we are to get anything from this.
    Also we need some muscle on him, Cabango or Bennett need to mark him and unsettle him and rough him up a bit, he has got a temper and could lose it.

    Well boys that was fun - not.
    Great first half where we went head to head with Fulham.
    The sending off ruined the game and I doubt the appeal against the red card will be successful.
    We needed better game management when down to ten men and we looked disorganised and were demoralised and lacked fight towards the end. With Manning red carded and Downes off injured we were always going to struggle.
