Team News

Swansea
Preston
  • Luke Williams could make one change to the starting XI that faced Middlesbrough last weekend with Brazilian winger Ronald replacing Azeem Abdulai on the left.
  • Joe Allen, Andy Fisher and Josh Ginnelly are all confirmed absentees for Swansea ahead of Saturday's fixture.
  • Interim manager Mike Marsh could opt for the same starting line-up that cruised to victory against Championship rivals Sunderland in the Carabao Cup in midweek.
  • Midfield duo Ali McCann and Layton Stewart are both set to miss the trip to the Swansea.com Stadium this weekend.

Prediction

  • Swansea were outshot 18-5 by an impressive Middlesbrough side last weekend as they suffered a 1-0 defeat at the Riverside.
  • Luke Williams' side responded well in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night though, easing to a 3-1 victory against League Two Gillingham, and they now go in search of their first league win.
  • Tensions between Ryan Lowe and the Preston fans were running high heading into the campaign, and a concerning display against Sheffield United on the opening weekend was all that it took for the board to call time on his spell in charge.
  • That change sparked an instant response, with the managerless visitors beating Sunderland 2-0 in cup action in midweek.

  • Interesting game this one with the potential to be the highest scoring game of the day. Both will want at least a point on the board by the end. 2-2 draw
