Swansea City vs. Tottenham Hotspur Predictions & Match Preview 05/04/2017

The Match Is Over. Score: 1-3

Swansea City vs. Tottenham Match Preview:

Tottenham's chairman, a distinguished British businessman Daniel Levy, for over five long years (2011-2016), had been permanently saying that of all the actual football tournaments, both domestic or continental, his club feeds interest only upon the UEFA Champions league and the Premier League.

However, during such a long term "The Spurs" would invariably win only an admission to the Europa League, in which the coaching staff of Levy's team demonstratively featured a semi-reserve squad at the group stage.

Swansea vs. Tottenham: Match Preview

Nevertheless, following the results of last season, Mr. Levy's long-standing dream came true, and after five years of agonizing anticipation and several changes in the management staff, the Spurs led by Argentinean specialist Mauricio Pochettino returned to the Champions League.

Truly saying, in the company with French Monaco and German Bayer Leverkusen Tottenham could not get through the group in the autumn of last year. But now, within the decisive spring session in English football "The Lilywhites" occupy the runner-up spot, by 3 points going ahead of the nearest pursuer in the face of Liverpool:

Chelsea - 69 (29), Tottenham - 62 (29), Liverpool - 59 (30), Manchester City - 58 (29)...

The club of Mr. Daniel Levy will have to be involved in nine games more within the following seven weeks until the Premier League season comes to the end. There wherein should be marked The North London derby as they go against Arsenal (30th April), two capital derbies where to feature Crystal Palace (26th April) and West Ham (5th May), as well as a home game against Manchester United (13th May).

All the other sides, including the upcoming Welsh opposition from Swansea, can be possibly beaten.

The hosts of the Liberty Stadium became a full-fledged member of the Premier League in the summer of 2011. Since then, Tottenham have been to Liberty on five occasions. And even at the time when the former team of Gary Monk was a relatively strong, average-ranked team of English football, Swansea never managed to beat their actual opponent at home.

Three times the winners were the visiting Tottenham Hotspur, and twice (including last season) with involvement of The Swans with The Spurs together at Liberty, here was declared a draw (2-2).

As of this instant, the only representative of Wales in the Premier League, along with Sunderland, Hull City, Middlesbrough, and other outsiders, is desperately fighting for survival and does not present a real threat for such a strong side like Tottenham, at the current moment, in particular.
