Head coach Paul Clement says that Swansea City will target three points from their Premier League fixture with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Swansea City head coach Paul Clement has said that his side are capable of earning a result against Chelsea, providing that his players are "absolutely focused".

The Welsh club have lost seven of their last 11 matches in all competitions, although Clement did witness his team record a goalless draw with Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon.

Swansea remain in the relegation zone, but Clement has insisted that his squad can cause a surprise at Stamford Bridge if they adopt the correct mentality.

The 45-year-old told reporters: "Chelsea is not a shot to nothing. It's a tough ask, you are going there and might have less of the ball. But teams like Burnley have done well.

"We believe we can go anywhere and get a result but we have to be absolutely focused. We have to be at our best defensively and clinical if we get a chance.

"We have to get tactics right but we are not going there just to defend. We want to create chances and try and get all three points. It is a tough ask but we have been away and pushed top teams hard."

Swansea have failed to score in their last three matches in the top flight.
