    Pretty good, easy reading, preview there. Liked the picture of Bertrand. The photographer has caught him right in the peak of power and energy. The perspiration is like water over his face, and he looks twice his normal size.

    Swansea City have gone 287 minutes of football without a goal against Southampton.
    Saints did the double over Swansea last season and are unbeaten in five overall against them (W2 D3).
    There have been just five goals scored in the four Barclays Premier League meetings between Southampton and Swansea City.
    Swansea are one of only two teams to have won both of their home games in the Premier League this season (alongside Chelsea).
    Southampton are looking to win three games in a row for only the third time since returning to the Premier League in August 2012.
    Graziano Pelle has scored three goals from just six shots on target in the Premier League for Southampton..
    Nathan Dyer has scored with all three of his shots on target for Swansea this season.
    Gylfi Sigurdsson has assisted four goals in four appearances this season.

    Lawro thinks we'll win 2-1, Lennon thinks we'll lose 2-0.

    Goddamnit I hate it when lawro picks the same result as me. I'll have to change it to a 3-1 with Forster to score the third with a cartwheel kick.

    This is too close to call. I would be satisfied with a draw...to keep the unbeaten run going. Then onto a win against QPR at SMS.

    On that basis, Pelle will get a hat-trick as he scored 1 v West Ham, 2 v Newcastle, so it will be 3 v Swansea.

    Unless he is doubling his previous score...1 v WHU, 2 v Newcastle, so 4 against Swansea. :)

    Great to see him laughing and looking happy, unless he was planning to bite lumps out of Forster as soon as the cameras turned away. Good to see Jay Rod in there too.
