Manchester United vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

A draw against Manchester City on Thursday evening has kept Manchester United well in hunt for a top four finish and a return to the Champions League. They start the weekend in fifth place, a point behind City and two adrift of third placed Liverpool but with a vital game in hand. Five wins and United are back in the Champions League. The trouble with United is that they draw far too many games with 13 so far in the Premier League and two of their last five games are against Arsenal and Tottenham. They still haven't lost a game at home since a defeat by Manchester City last September and should be able to deal with their struggling visitors. Swansea City start the weekend in the bottom three and are two points from safety with just four games to go. Following this trip to Old Trafford they host Everton and West Brom and travel to Sunderland so there's a little bit of hope for them. Recent results for Swansea at Old Trafford have been good with wins in 2014 and 2015 but they have lost their last two games against United. Current form is a worry of course but a run of six league games without a win was ended with a home win over inconsistent Stoke last weekend. Away form isn't at all promising though with six straight losses and not a single goal scored. Go for United to win this on a -1 handicap.
