Arsenal can nick the win despite cautious Swansea approach

Premier League
7.45pm Tuesday

Arsenal have responded impressively to the departure of Alexis Sanchez and they can make it three wins on the spin by beating basement boys Swansea at the Liberty.

Patience may be required from the Gunners, who are likely to come up against a massed defence.

Swansea showed great powers of concentration to nick a 1-0 win over Liverpool last week and are almost certain to adopt similarly cautious tactics.

It may not be a classic game but Arsenal's extra class should see them over the line.
