Team News

Swansea
Cardiff
  • Zan Vipotnik scored his first Swansea goal off the bench against Preston last weekend and could be rewarded with a full league debut against Cardiff this weekend.
  • Joe Allen, Andy Fisher and Josh Ginnelly are all confirmed absentees for the South Wales Derby at the Swansea.com Stadium.
  • Aaron Ramsey is a doubt for this game after picking up an injury late on against Burnley, while Joe Ralls will also be absent.
  • New signing Jesper Daland could make his debut at centre-back, although there will be no Mark McGuinness after he completed a move to Luton.

Prediction

  • Swansea were in cruise control against a managerless Preston side last weekend, scoring twice in the final half-hour as they romped to a 3-0 home win.
  • That result was a much-welcomed one after an opening weekend defeat to Middlesbrough and means that Luke Williams' men have all the momentum heading into this fierce derby clash.
  • Cardiff, on the other hand, are in crisis mode ahead of their trip to the Swansea.com Stadium.
  • The Bluebirds have scored none and conceded seven across their opening two league fixtures this season, and despite this being just the third gameweek, a comprehensive defeat here would put Erol Bulut in a precarious position.
