14 – Swansea cannot afford to fall behind
Swansea have lost 12 of the 14 Premier League games this season in which they conceded the first goal (W1 D1).
Therefore, Paul Clement will be fully aware that his side’s best chance of victory lies in preventing Arsenal from scoring the first goal.
This notion is heightened when you consider the fact no Premier League side has netted the opening goal in more matches this season than the Gunners (14).
Having said this, Arsene Wenger’s side did go on to lose three of those games.
