The subtle dressing room dig Swansea City have just made at Cardiff City's expense

Swansea City are bidding to make history today as they look to become the first side to complete a league double in the South Wales derby.

Steve Cooper made three changes to the side that started the 1-0 win over Charlton in the last fixture.

And there was a debut for striker Rhian Brewster who is on loan from Liverpool until the end of the season.

The arduous journey for Swansea fans travelling to and from Cardiff City Stadium has been well-documented.

But the Swans were giving them plenty of reasons to cheer, even before a ball had been kicked.

On the door of the away dressing room, the Swans had plastered five images from the reverse fixture, a game that Cooper's men won 1-0 thanks to Ben Wilmot's first half header.

And the image - shared on social media - certainly went down well with the Swansea faithful.
