Swansea City v Everton: match preview

For all the early-season promise shown by Everton’s front pairing of Arouna Koné and Romelu Lukaku, it was Steven Naismith who scored three goals against Chelsea and it seems inconceivable that he will not start at the Liberty Stadium. With a fully fit squad to choose from, Garry Monk will be hoping to put last week’s reverse at the hands of Watford behind the Swans. Barry Glendenning
