Pre-match preview

Lincoln City

Chiedozie Ogbene is expected to drop out of Lincoln City's starting eleven this weekend. Rob Street is preferred to Reeco Hackett for a place further forward, continuing the competition between them.

Sonny Bradley continues to switch between centre-back and left-back, having played both positions in recent matches, and is expected to start in the back three again against Swansea City.

Tom Hamer is doubtful due to health problems, but he is back out on the grass and nearing a return. Mason Melia and Tendayi Darikwa remain out with thigh and knee injuries respectively.

Swansea City

Josh Key has carried a hamstring concern through the week, but he is still expected to start at right-back, with Jenson Seelt the alternative.

Ben Cabango is expected to be preferred to Filip Lissah in central defence after Lissah came off the bench against Burnley. Adam Idah is expected to continue leading the line despite being withdrawn around the hour mark in each of his last four starts.

Ross Stewart, still out with a quadriceps injury, could resume training during the international break. Cameron Burgess is also unavailable with an Achilles problem.
