Swansea must go on the attack against Middlesbrough to stave off relegation

This is a modal window.

Paul Clement was clearly disappointed with Swansea's result against Bournemouth, but still believes they're in a good spot.

This season's title race might be all but over, but the relegation battle is still wide open. After three wins in the first five games under new manager Paul Clement, Swansea looked ready to pull away from trouble. Two worrying losses versus relegation rivals Hull City and an underwhelming Bournemouth have put the Welsh club right back in the thick of it.

Now just three points above the drop zone, Swansea must beat visiting Middlesbrough on Sunday to jump-start their survival bid for a second time.
