Team News

Swansea
Stoke
  • Luke Williams' only likely change here will be an attacking one with Zan Vipotnik replacing Myles Peart-Harris up top.
  • Star forward Liam Cullen is struggling with illness and is a doubt for the visit of Stoke.
  • Narcis Pelach could make two changes on Saturday afternoon with Eric-Junior Bocat and Jordan Thompson returning to the starting XI.
  • Winger Million Manhoef missed the win against Portsmouth with a knock and remains a doubt for the trip to Wales this weekend.

Prediction

  • Swansea shot themselves in the foot against Sheffield United in midweek, going behind through a Josh Tymon own goal, and from there the Welsh side were unable to recover against the Championship's only unbeaten team.
  • Luke Williams' men have impressed on home soil and are yet to taste defeat at the Swansea.com Stadium.
  • Stoke scored five goals in an astonishing 10-minute period either side of half time on Wednesday night as they claimed the biggest league win of the 2024/25 season to date, hammering Portsmouth 6-1 at the bet365 Stadium.
  • That win was a crucial one for Narcis Pelach, who had kicked off his tenure with back-to-back defeats.
