FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Swansea City at home in recent games, and, though FootyMad cannot see a run starting here, the Swans will at least gain a draw. Score draw
Swans MAD Comment.....
Surely its about time that Jackett's plans come together in the fourth game of the season??!! Cheltenham have struggled early on against poorer opposition - Swans need 3 points!!
