Swansea City prepare to entertain Darlington at Vetch Field on Wednesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Swans are clearly on top, winning 12 and drawing 7 of the 21 games played.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vetch Field was less than a year ago, in November 2003, the Swans carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Division Three match.
