It was a strange year at Swansea City, last time around.

Initial optimism, generated by some excellent performances against the top clubs on television, soon disappeared once the club found themselves mired in the drop zone.

Garry Monk, hailed as a future England manager in September, was gone before Christmas and in his place came Francesco Guidolin, a relative unknown to South Wales' casual football fan.

What followed was a quiet but impressive clean-up job, as Guidolin steered the Swans well clear of danger with time to spare. By the end of the campaign, a steeliness had returned to Swansea and Guidolin had signed a two-year contract.

Can they carry the momentum forward into 2016/17?

Here are some of the highlights from Swansea’s fixture list to look out for:

First game

Swansea will face Burnley at Turf Moor on the 13 August 2016.

Last game

Swansea will play against West Bromwich Albion at the Liberty Stadium on the 21 May 2017.

Over the festive period

Swansea will play West Ham United (h) on Boxing Day, Bournemouth (h) on 31 December and Crystal Palace (a) on 2 January.
