Swansea v Bournemouth
A top six clash tonight as we take on Bournemouth at the Liberty.
Recently relegated from the Premier League they are presently second in the table and on track for a quick return. Despite some big transfers of players out they have kept the majority of their squad together and have only been defeated twice this season, so we will have to be at our best.
Bournemouth make a late assessment on the fitness of Arnaut Danjuma (hamstring injury)and Josh King (Covid-19 recovery).
Swans experienced leader in defence, centre-back Ryan Bennet is out with a hamstring injury and our other centre-back Marc Guehi is being assessed after being subbed on Saturday with a head injury.
