Season 20/21: Swansea City v Cardiff City Match Thread

[JA News]

Swansea City v Cardiff City
The Liberty Stadium, Swansea
The SKYBET Championship
20 March 2021, 5.30pm Kick Off

This match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports

It is the small matter of the South Wales derby at the Liberty on Saturday evening as the Swans look to put the disappointment of Bournemouth behind them and go in search of history as we aim to become the first side to complete a league double in this fixture.

After our 2-0 win at the Cardiff City Stadium towards the end of last year it is the chance also to go into the international break with a much needed morale boosting win and a requirement to keep pace with a Watford side who moved three points clear of us in midweek.

The Swans have to start showing some urgency if they are to make the promotion places this season - it is something desperately missing from our performances as we look lethargic at best and definitely in need of the international break that will follow the Cardiff game.

As ever on Planet Swans we have for you some of the most comprehensive pre-match coverage in our matchday thread that will bring you all we need to know over the next few days as well as all the chat during the match together with every post match follow up you would wish to read (and maybe even more!)

Huge game for the Swans this one

Can we secure the first ever league double in the fixture?

Can we get the win that we now so desperately need in the lead up to the international break?

Can we now class this as a must win game?

What would be your team selection for the game?

Let the discussion flow...

I’d bring back Fulton, Bidwell & Cabango, as well as Guehi if he’s fit. Lowe absolutely should not be starting.

If there is one thing that we should have learned from the recent fixtures is that it is the age old definition of insanity which simply says that the definition is “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results” rings very true for Swansea City at the moment. Quite simply...
