Swansea City v West Ham United: match preview

Swansea City v West Ham United
Swansea City v West Ham United: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

If Swansea can produce the energetic display that almost enabled them to snatch a draw last Saturday at Manchester City they could have the beating of West Ham, who remain stricken by multiple key injuries. Slaven Bilic’s attacking replacements have not been able to fill the void left by Dimitri Payet, in particular, but Bilic should still be faithful against Swansea, who have not won in their last six league games. Graham Searles
