Two clubs in the top half of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Swansea City and Tottenham. The first-division clash scheduled for 11 a.m. ET will be held at Liberty Stadium in Swansea and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on NBC Sports.
What They're Saying
Swansea City manager Garry Monk (via Walesonline): "They are not a bogey side. They're a good team. When you play against teams with that kind of power, it will always be difficult. We could have won here in our first season and they were holding on. Yes, we can get three points against them, but they'll be thinking the same."
Swansea City manager Mauricio Pochettino (via London24): "We have a lot of games ahead in the league and we play Newcastle in the Capital One Cup next Wednesday. We need to manage the players and we have many injury problems because it's tough for our players."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Tottenham's Harry Kane has been in spectacular form in Europa League play, but is yet to carry it over to league competitions. In 11 appearances, the 21-year-old has just two of his nine goals and is averaging less than one key pass per match (0.5). He'll need to improve if Tottenham hope to escape Liberty Stadium with three points.
Swansea City's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Tremmel; Taylor, Williams, Bartley, Rangel; Yueng, Shelvey; Montero, Sigurdsson, Routledge; Bony
Tottenham's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Lloris; Davies, Vertonghen, Fazio, Naughton; Mason, Bentaleb; Eriksen, Kane, Lennon; Soldado
