Swansea City v Brighton & Hove Albion: match preview

Swansea City v Brighton & Hove Albion
Swansea City v Brighton & Hove Albion: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

This feels like a must-win game for Swansea who are outside the relegation zone only on goal difference and have lost four of their five home league games this season. They will be missing Renato Sanches, Martin Olsson and Leon Britton but Wilfried Bony has a chance of making the bench. Brighton, who look more comfortable in the Premier League after a run that has gleaned eight points from their past five matches, promise to be awkward opponents. Stuart James
