Wouldn't look too deeply into the match odds. We were favs against West Ham a fortnight ago. I think we have a better chance of beating Burnley at Turf Moor rather than Swansea at the King Power. Although I hadn't heard of them having any outs?
I'd be happy with a draw out of this one. We play Burnley, QPR and Sunderland in our run home. Our focus should be to pick up 9 points from those games. Any extra points are a complete bonus.
Really? Oh wow, 1.80 vs 2.10? Dang, it looks like both the Tottenham game, and West Ham's fall certainly had its part in that, but not to the extent where it makes us favourties. I guess you've missed on the most notable piece of news that came out of the Swansea game: Gomis is injured. (I should note this: The way Swansea handled Gomis is the way we should handle Kramaric so that Krammers will absolutely belt it next season.)
In regards to other outs, Naughton (Remember him?) broke his ankle against Hull. Montero (Who did quite well against us) and Olivera are not expected to return this week (They'll likely be back in the next Swansea home game), and Tom Carroll won't play.
In other words, a fair bit of talent is missing here, and their attacking capabilities are significantly reduced. Of course we have to be weary as usual, but combined with the fact that Swansea do poorly here, I think now would be a very good opportunity to pick up some bonus points (100% Agreement, as long as we win over Burnley, QPR, and Sunderland, everything else is a bonus). Hopefully the fans will be on song, giving further confidence to the lads. It also helps that the only other team that is playing is Burnley, so now is finally the time to get off the bottom.
