Pre-season & friendlies edit

Swansea's pre-season preparations began by travelling to Chicago for a two-week training camp.[90] Their first pre-season match came against Mexican side Guadalajara at Miller Park on 16 July. The game finished 1–1, with Nathan Dyer scoring Swansea's goal in the 57th minute. Neil Taylor and Guadalajara's Jesús Sánchez García were both sent off in the 80th minute.[91] Three days later Swansea faced NASL side Minnesota United in Blaine, losing the game 2–0.[92]

Following the conclusion of the US tour, Swansea's next game came against League Two side Plymouth Argyle. The Swans won the match 4–0, courtesy of goals from Rory Donnelly, Jordi Amat, and two goals from new signing Gylfi Sigurðsson.[93] A couple of days later, Swansea registered their second win of their pre-season with a 2–0 win over Exeter City. The goals were scored by Bafétimbi Gomis and Josh Sheehan.[94]

A mixture of youth and first team players faced Bournemouth on 1 August, which saw Swansea defeated 3–1. Swansea's new Ecuadorian winger Jefferson Montero scored their only goal in the 68th minute.[95] The following day, Swansea travelled to the Madejski Stadium to face Championship side Reading. Swansea ran out 3–1 winners. Wayne Routledge scored two goals in two minutes in the first half, and Gomis scored Swansea's third in the 65th minute.[96]

On 9 August, Swansea's final pre-season friendly saw them face La Liga side Villarreal at the Liberty Stadium. They lost the match 3–0, with goals coming from Ikechukwu Uche, Bruno Soriano and Denis Cheryshev.[97]

Notes:
  1. ^ a b Since winners of the 2014–15 FA Cup, Arsenal, and winners of the 2014–15 Football League Cup, Chelsea, qualified for the Champions League based on league position, the spot awarded to the FA Cup winners (Europa League group stage) was passed to the sixth-placed team, Liverpool, and the spot awarded to the League Cup winners (Europa League third qualifying round) was passed to the seventh-placed team, Southampton, since those teams were the first teams in the table not already qualified for any European competition.
