Swans fans are confident that Manchester United will be beaten at the Liberty this afternoon or at least if the results of our latest site poll are anything to go by with 48% saying we will triumph again.
The Swans won both league meetings against Man Utd last season and Garry Monk will be looking to take his record to three from three this afternoon with a win that will lift the Swans into the Premier League top four ahead of the first international break of the season.
Most fans are expecting a positive result this afternoon with 35% also predicting an away win and just 17% coming in with the draw.
Last season at the Liberty the Swans came from behind to win the game and complete a historic league double and Louis Van Gaal has already spoken about how he does not want to lose again.
Some media pundits have predicted the Swans for a win and there are enough people saying that our start to the season is more convincing than theirs despite the fact that they have more points on the board.
