Paulo Sousa is expecting to face a different Derby County side when the Swans line-up at Pride Park tomorrow (3pm).

The Swans dominated the last clash before the two sides at the Liberty Stadium back in November but the Rams have since picked up in form.

They have lost just one of their last seven Championship outings which have included home victories against Newcastle, local rivals Nottingham Forest a thumping of Preston North End.

Fede Bessone struck late on to clinch all three points against Nigel Clough's side but the Swans boss expects a far more challenging encounter this time around.

"It will be much tougher than it was when we played them at the Liberty," said Paulo.

"They are a difficult team in this moment, after the winter break they reinforced their team - they are stronger, better organised, more aggressive and show good quality, it will be a great game for both teams.

"But hopefully in the end we can get what we want, and what we prepared for all week, and that's getting the three points."

The Swans will be looking to complete a disappointing week which has seen late goals conceded in the last two games, denying maximum points in the process.

But fourth spot is still currently occupied ahead of the trip to Derbyshire and Paulo has called for his side to maintain their consistency for the remaining 15 games of the season.

He added: "We need to keep going with the same enthusiasm and happiness because we are a strong side, always consistent, well organised, very difficult to beat and we will go into every remaining game full of confidence."
