West Bromwich Albion's 2024 begins with a long trip to South Wales on New Year's Day.
The Baggies take on Swansea City at the Swansea.com Stadium where they'll be hoping to earn a third consecutive victory following Hawthorns successes against Norwich City and Leeds United in recent days.
The hosts Swansea have won one, lost one and drawn one of their three festive fixtures, recording a 2-2 draw at Coventry City on Friday in their last encounter.
Albion won the reverse fixture 3-2 in the West Midlands back in August, with Semi Ajayi, Carl Rushworth (OG) and John Swift on target for Carlos Corberán's men.

The opponents
Swansea City have been without a permanent manager since December 4 when the club decided to part ways with Michael Duff after just 21 games in charge.
Former Leicester City, Notts County and Luton Town defender Alan Sheehan has been the interim boss ever since, winning two, drawing two and losing two of his six games.
The Swans, who are now into their sixth straight Sky Bet Championship season following their relegation from the Premier League in 2017/18, have qualified for the play-offs in two of the previous five campaigns, however, this time around, they're ten points off the pace and sit 17th heading into Monday's clash.
They'll be buoyed by Friday night's last-minute equaliser at Coventry City, a result which helped to ease the frustration of losing 5-0 at Southampton just three days earlier.
Swansea will be disappointed to have only picked up three wins from 12 home matches so far this term and will want to kick 2024 off in the best way possible - by recording three points against the Albion.
One to remember
The Baggies secured three vital Premier League points at Swansea in March 2014.
Roland Lamah scored as early as the second minute for the hosts, but second-half efforts from Stephane Sessegnon and Youssouf Mulumbu turned the encounter on its head.
