At first glance, this looks like a home banker. Swansea are 11 points clear at the top of the table, and Milwall are languishing just a point above the drop zone. However I think there are some key factors that point to a potential upset. Firstly Swansea are going to beat a 37 year old record if they avoid defeat tonight, as it will be a 19 game run record they will be chasing. now a fair bit has been talked about this record, and it often is a bit of a monkey on a teams back when they chase records, and although a little tenuous, it is a potential rik in Swansea game tonight.

The Swans have also been away to Spain for 4 days on a "tem building" excercise, and usually these types of events go one of 2 ways, they either work a little bit, or fail alot. Think about it, alot of players with big ego's in each others pockets for 24/7 for 4 days, there couldbe a few tempers frayed there, and it coiuld have had the opposite effect it was desired to have.

However the biggest chance of an upset for me is in the managerial aspect of the game. Kenny Jacket returns to Wales tonight for the first time since he walked away from the club a year ago. He will be rampant to gain a victory ( or at least a draw ) here to proove something of a belated point. He will have his players 110% fired up for this game, and will throw the kitchen sink at the game to get a little revenge back on his former club.

Also, these teams drew 2-2 at the Den earlier in the year, and Swansea have a few players out tonight.

Milwall to get something from this tonight.
