Michael Duff, the head coach of Swansea City, is eager for his team to embrace the challenge and display bravery as they prepare to host the league leaders, Leicester City, at the Swansea.com Stadium today. The Swans have been in excellent form lately, securing 13 out of the last 15 available points in the Championship by winning their last four matches against Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall, Norwich City, and Plymouth Argyle.
Leicester, on the other hand, is on a remarkable winning streak, with six consecutive victories, marking one of the best starts to a Championship season with 30 points from 11 matches. Despite being considered underdogs, Duff believes that his team can present difficulties for the visiting Leicester side, especially with the support of the passionate home crowd.
Duff acknowledges the quality of Leicester, highlighting their Premier League-level players, but he also emphasizes the Swans’ own strengths. He insists that they won’t simply adopt a defensive approach but intend to impose their own style of play on their opponents, showcasing their effectiveness both with and without the ball.
Duff is confident in his team’s abilities and believes that, while they’ll need to perform at their best, there’s no fear or hesitation on their part. They are determined to go for the win, especially since they are playing at their home ground.
He said ,“We’ll have to be at our best.”
Duff hopes that the enthusiastic supporters can create an electrifying atmosphere, just like in their game against Norwich, and sees no reason why they can’t have a successful day. He underlines the Swans’ talent and their capability to pose a threat to Leicester.
