Queens Park Rangers

Richard Kone has been passed fit for QPR after going off injured during the defeat at Birmingham, and he is in contention alongside Rayan Kolli for a place in Julien Stéphan's attack against Swansea. Rumarn Burrell remains doubtful because of a registration issue, having started twice in the last five games.

Elsewhere, Amadou Mbengue remains out with a knee injury, and Kealey Adamson is expected to continue at right-back. Jimmy Dunne and Ronnie Edwards are both expected to start in central defence, while Jake Clarke-Salter faces competition from Jonathan Varane for the other place in the back line. Dennis Cirkin is available again after serving a suspension. Nicolas Madsen is not expected to return to the side after missing the Birmingham game entirely.

Swansea City

Swansea City have confirmed that Ronald will be out for six to eight weeks with a hamstring injury, just after making his first start in five games against West Ham. Filip Lissah, who returns after serving a one-match suspension, is expected to come back in at right-back, having started three of the previous five games there.

At the other end of defence, Stephen Welsh is expected to continue at left centre-back ahead of Jenson Seelt.
