Swansea - MU: The party of the 'red devils'!

(Baonghean.vn) - At 6:30 p.m. on August 19 (Vietnam time), coach Mourinho and his team will travel to Liberty Stadium to play away against Swansea in the early match of round 2 of the Premier League.

Starting with a convincing 4-0 victory over West Ham, the Old Trafford team showed that they are a strong candidate for the 2017/2018 Premier League championship. The destructive machine that coach Mourinho worked hard to build has begun to show its effectiveness. From defense to attack, from veterans to rookies... all performed their roles excellently.

The £75 million contract, Lukaku has proven his fearsome scoring instinct, scoring twice in his first match for MU in the Premier League. The worry about the gap left by Ibrahimovic in the attack has been temporarily put to rest. Besides, the "newcomer" Matic is not inferior to his Belgian colleague, with an excellent performance in the midfield area.

Rashford is still playing explosively and energetically like last season, Pogba is no longer lacking in front of the opponent's goal. Substitute Martial has somewhat regained his killer instinct with 1 goal and 1 assist... Bailly and De Gea are still reliable stoppers in the back line. Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired, MU has been this strong.

Even coach Mourinho did not hesitate to affirm: "I have never worked with such a talented and harmonious team. MU owns many good players with great personalities. MU's squad depth is also impressive. I think I am leading the strongest team in my career." Maybe Mourinho is a bit too much, but the strength of the Old Trafford team is real.

Therefore, the away match against Swansea in the earliest match of round 2, the "red devils" will find it difficult to ignore the opportunity to win all 3 points. The home field advantage probably won't help Swansea stop the progress of coach Mourinho and his team. In contrast to MU in the opening match, the "swans" were only lucky to get a draw against Southampton.

Before welcoming the Red Devils of Manchester, Coach Paul Clement could not field key midfielder Sigurdsson - who just transferred to Everton for 45 million pounds. Having not brought in any notable new players, the Liberty Stadium team has now lost their brightest star. With the faces in hand, it is difficult for Coach Paul Clement to help Swansea achieve a favorable result against MU.

According to statistics, in the last 5 confrontations, the two teams' achievements are balanced with the results: 2 wins - 1 draw - 2 losses for each side. In this reunion, it is likely that coach Mourinho and his team will win. In addition to having to play away, MU is better than their opponents in terms of form and strength. The "swan" party held lavishly at Liberty is waiting for the "red devils" to enjoy./.
