Preview

It's not a good time for Manchester City to be without their captain Vincent Kompany. He's set to miss this trip and Thursday's return Europa League tie with Sporting Lisbon, when City will have to come from behind.

Defeat in Portugal in the first leg followed a somewhat laboured victory over Bolton. With rivals Manchester United having the easier looking title-run in, some critics are predicting the leaders will falter, starting with a banana skin slip-up at the Liberty Stadium where Arsenal have been beaten and Chelsea held.

    “Sergio Aguero, Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Yaya Toure would all make excellent candidates for the Footballer of the Year award”

Kompany has been outstanding and, if Joleon Lescott is also missing, their hopes of keeping a fifth league clean sheet in a row in the top flight for the first time since April 1915 could be dashed.

Swansea may have failed to score on 11 occasions this season (the joint highest tally in the division) but Scott Sinclair's pace and Danny Graham's power can trouble City, although the suspended Nathan Dyer will be badly missed by the home side.

On the opening day of the season, when they were thumped 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium, it was difficult to see how Brendan Rodgers' brand of open attacking football could keep them in the Premier League. But they've learned lessons quickly and just one more victory could be enough to see them safe. That would be some achievement by one of the brightest coaches around.

Sergio Aguero, Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko are all likely to finish with more than 20 goals this season. Aguero, Kompany, Joe Hart, David Silva and Yaya Toure would all make excellent candidates for the Footballer of the Year award.

It's a daunting prospect for Swansea, who won't sacrifice their attractive style for defensive pragmatism. That should make it open and entertaining but it's a game Roberto Mancini's side have to win.
MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

    Swansea made their Premier League debut against Manchester City back on Monday, 15 August and were handed a 4-0 thrashing. Sergio Aguero scored twice on his debut. It remains the Swans' heaviest defeat of the season.
    Manchester City fired in 15 shots on target in that game, the most in any Premier League match this season.
    City did the double over the Swans in the second tier in 1983-84. Until this season they had not met since then.

Swansea

    The Swans have kept the same amount of clean sheets (10) as Liverpool and Tottenham in the league this season. Only the two Manchester clubs have had more.
    They have taken 19 points from 14 matches against top-half opposition - only the current top three have a better record.
    Swansea have failed to score on 11 occasions this season - the join highest tally in the division with Wigan.

Manchester City

    Manchester City's 2-0 win over Bolton gave them their fourth clean sheet in a row in the league, the first time they had achieved this in the top-flight since December 1977 to January 1978.
    They have conceded only two goals in the last nine Premier League matches in which Vincent Kompany played.
    City have only won two of their last seven league away games.
    They have scored 69 league goals and are just three short of their most ever in a single Premier League season, which was 72 in 2009-10.
