-------------------------------
Match Preview:
Swansea won for the first time in almost a month on Saturday, beating Norwich 2-1 in Wales, with Zan Vipotnik scoring twice to secure a valuable three points, and the result moved them up to 13th in the Championship table.

Alan Sheehan's side are only three points off the playoffs at this stage of the campaign, and they have been in impressive form in the EFL Cup this season, needing to win three times to reach this round.

Indeed, the Welsh club have beaten Crawley Town, Plymouth Argyle and Nottingham Forest in this season's EFL Cup, and they will now be aiming to overcome another Premier League club to reach the quarter-finals.

Man City, meanwhile, will enter this match off the back of a 1-0 defeat to Villa in England's top flight, with Matty Cash netting the only goal of the contest in the 19th minute.

Guardiola's side are down in fifth spot in the Premier League table, picking up 16 points from nine matches, and they sit six points behind leaders Arsenal, who have emerged as serious title favourites.

The Citizens have won two of their three Champions League matches this term, while they have only played once in the EFL Cup this term, beating Huddersfield Town 2-0 in the third round.

Match Prediction:
Man City will not be at full strength on Wednesday, but we are still expecting Guardiola's side to have too much for their Championship opponents, with a comfortable night likely to see them progress into the next round.
