Opposition Focus:

Briton Ferry Llansawel will face Swansea on Sunday when they visit LLandarcy Academy of Sport.  Swansea City have won the Adran Premier six times, joint top with Cardiff Met. 

Last season saw a tough campaign for the Swans who finished in fifth place, not making the Championship group.  This was the first time the club did not make the top four since the leagues restructure. 

This season has seen Swansea start well with four wins from six matches.  The Swans sit in third place on 12 points, just a point behind Cardiff City and Wrexham who both have 13.  The Reds could go level on points with their West Wales rivals with a win.  Swansea do a have a better goal difference. 

That goal difference was bolstered in their last match last Sunday.  The Swans hammered Pontypridd United 10-1 and saw seven different scorers.  That match saw them with their biggest victory of the season since their opening day win over Barry Town.

Swansea legend Stacy John leads the way with goals this season with five, just one behind top scorer Mackenzie Olden and the same as Reds forward Jade Crofts. 

Last season saw the Reds record their first win over Swansea with a win at Old Road before a draw at LLandarcy moved the Reds closer to securing a top four place ahead of the Swans.

Both clubs have seen changes in management since last season but with local bragging rights and important league points on the line this game could prove a massive moment in the season.
