Swansea city manager Michael Laudrup calls on his players to "take the initiative" against Bradford City in the Capital One Cup final on Sunday.

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has insisted that his side will not underestimate opponents Bradford City in the Capital One Cup final on Sunday.

The Swans are huge favourites to overcome the League Two side at Wembley, and Laudrup has encouraged his players to take their opportunity to win the League Cup for the club for the first time.

Laudrup told Wales Online: "For some players, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance and you have to enjoy it.

"If we are talking about headlines, then this game is a dream for Swansea but it's an even bigger fairytale for Bradford.

"This is unique for us, but it's even more special for Bradford and my players won't underestimate them. But we have to accept that we are favourites and we have to take the initiative."

The winner of Sunday's final will qualify for next season's Europa League.
