    I think just cuz Man U haven't played well in preseason, and are on the road. Don't see any reason why they can't win here

        We'll do the Thai town one of this days - I'm not a big fan of Armenian cuisine

              Fox no longer has EPL, all EPL is on NBC only, I think they plan on showing a a game from all 6 stndard time slots, as well as all game avail for free on the site

                      Man Us defence isnt great.. Rooney situation, poor pre season, new manager, minimal signings, good time for Swansea who have Michu and now Bony in attack.
                      BUT yeah 2.04 is still good..

                        I think this is one of the games on the main NBC network. I would say its a pretty big deal to have EPL games nationally televised in the states, I gotta imagine its the first league game any of the big European leagues have had televised nationally here but could be wrong. Obviously that excludes any competitions like Champions League.

                          Swansea good enough to atleast draw at home.....underrated by the public

                          Line seems fair though if you like ManU go for it

                            Well ESPN always had the the bigger games on last season.....As for nationally televised, I thought Fox may have had a few but not sure

                            The FA Cup final was on Fox last season

                                Books are not trusting the new coach yet. Big mistake and they will get punished.

                                  I wasn't counting ESPN since its on cable or the FA Cup since it was a competiton, obviously Fox anticipated to have a bigger name final than the one they got when they signed on to broadcast it.

                                                2.00 for United is pretty decent. I remember last season their odds were absolute crap

                                                  What the penetrate is going on with this line?

                                                  Manchester United is +102 to Swansea??????

                                                  Weird weird line. How the fukk is middle of the road Swansea beating Man U a team that is 56-10-10 the past 2 seasons in league play?

                                                    It's just because it's first game of the season so teams can be rusty. Also there was the mid-week internationals so many Man U players were involved in that and sometimes players come back tired from playing and travelling and look sluggish. Man Utd have also failed to improve their team from last year aside from signing Zaha, but they will still struggle to keep clean sheets and lack depth in quality in midfield

                                                        Over would probably be best play IMO. Man U's defense is not that great and Swansea have players in Bony and Michu that could score

                                                              Agreed. Swansea's goal scoring ability is underrated here, conversely with United's defence being overrated.

                                                              Stay away from a side unless you are thinking Draw may be worth a look too and then hammer United's first home game.
