Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has said that he is confident of getting a result from this evening's Europa League clash with Valencia.
Miroslav Dukic's men have lost their last three games, and the Danish coach believes that the pressure will be on the hosts at the Mestalla.
"I'm quite confident because even though Valencia are a huge team, winning leagues, getting to Champions League finals and all that in the last ten or 11 years, I don't think the gap between the two teams right now is that big," Laudrup told reporters.
"Valencia have been the third team in Spain for many years, behind the two big ones. But, at this moment, Atletico Madrid are just above them. They have a new manager, and again they have sold a couple of their top players, like [Roberto] Soldado to Tottenham.
"They have had a tough start with just one win in four games and on Sunday they play Sevilla at home so it's a difficult moment for them. But that's not my problem – it's their problem. All the pressure is on Valencia. We have to try and play our best and I think we have a good chance of getting a positive result."
The Swans drew 2-2 with Liverpool on Monday.
