Swansea will be confident under Monk - Man City veteran Lampard

Manchester City midfielder Frank Lampard has warned his teammates ahead of a tough away fixture against Swansea City.

Garry Monk's Swans defeated Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Monday night and will be in a buoyant mood ahead of the visit of City.

"They'll be confident, they'll play good football and this is their last home game of the season so off the back of a very good season, they don't have much to lose," Lampard told City's official website.

"They are still looking to finish as high as they can so it will be a tough game for us.

"I've a lot of respect for Garry Monk because it wasn't an easy job to go into."

Swansea currently occupies eighth spot in the Premier League but are only two points behind Tottenham, who are sixth, while City sit second ahead of the Gunners.
