Swansea Metropolis boss Vitor Matos says going through Welsh rivals Wrexham gives a unique “emotional cost” in comparison with different Championship video games.
The 2 sides face one another on Friday, 19 December at Swansea.com Stadium within the first league contest between the Swans and the Dragons since 2003 (20:00 GMT).
Regardless of a geographical distance over greater than 100 miles between Swansea in south west Wales and Wrexham within the nation’s north east, Matos insists he’s treating the sport as a derby.
“I feel from what I really feel from our supporters, I feel we will name it a derby, straight on,” stated Matos.
“It is a sport with a unique emotional cost, however in these video games we’d like that emotion and the fervour to drive us ahead and that I feel that is fairly necessary.
“For that we’d like readability, we’d like self-discipline, we’d like id and that is what we might want to give attention to our sport.
“We have to respect Wrexham. What they’ve achieved within the latest years, being promoted, and the way they’re doing this season as effectively.
“If we glance again on the final 10 video games, they’ve solely misplaced one. So I feel that deserves, like all groups, our respect and deserves lots of credit score.
“Will probably be sport, 100%, and a sport that we should be on our toes to compete, and that is actually necessary.”
