Swansea City Under-21s are back at the Swansea.com on Monday afternoon as they welcome Hull City to SA1 in their Professional Development League fixture (12pm kick-off).

This fixture is free to attend and tickets can be claimed HERE.

The young Swans will hope to bounce back from their defeat to Sheffield United last time out, while looking to maintain their 100% win record at the Swansea.com Stadium since the start of last season.

The Tigers opened their PDL season with a victory over Charlton Athletic, but suffered a narrow 3-2 defeat against Millwall at the MKM Stadium last week.

 

Pre-match views

Coach Anthony Wright: 

"We will use the time to recover, dust ourselves off and work on the units which need improving after Tuesday against Sheffield.

"It's always a good occasion for the boys to play on a bigger pitch and to be in the stadium, and hopefully there's a decent crowd there to support them just like against Crewe."

Swansea City 3 Hull City 1

Swansea City Under-21s continued their excellent run of form as goals from Cameron Congreve, Ruben Davies and Azeem Abdulai sealed a fifth win in six Professional Development League games when Hull last visited the Swansea.com Stadium.

The hosts made an excellent start and surged into the lead as Congreve and Davies netted in quick succession.

Hull pulled a goal back via an opportunistic finish from Josh Hinds, but their hopes of a fightback were ended by Abdulai’s smart finish in the closing stages as Anthony Wright watched his Swans side make it three wins from three when playing at the stadium last season.

Swansea City U21s: Lewis Webb; Tivonge Rushesha, Ben Blythe, Kai Ludvigsen (Harry Jones 37), Sam Leverett (Corey Hurford 83); Joel Cotterill (captain), Azeem Abdulai; Liam Smith, Cameron Congreve; Ben Lloyd (Kian Jenkins 83); Ruben Davies (Josh Thomas 46).
