Swansea boss expecting ‘spicy’ Leicester affair

Paul Clement is well aware of the importance of Swansea City's meeting with Leicester City this weekend.

The 17th-placed Swans host the 16th-placed Foxes at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday in what has emerged as a genuine relegation six-pointer.

"The two teams are level on points and we will not play each other again this season, so that adds an extra spice to the fixture," Swans boss Clement told Swansea's official website.

"Even though we didn't get anything from our game last week, we go into this game with a lot of confidence and a belief that we are going in the right direction.

"We are at home, which is a clear advantage, so we need to make use of that.

"I think psychologically, if we get the victory and a good performance, that would be a big boost for us, particularly after the difficult result we had

at Manchester City.

"And certainly, we are going to be doing our very best to win the game on Sunday."
