Swansea City

Josh Key is still missing for the visit of Norwich City because of a health issue; he did not play in the win at Lincoln City and has started three of Swansea’s last five games. Filip Lissah is therefore expected to continue at right-back. Stephen Eustaquio’s shoulder injury did not appear serious after an X-ray, and he has returned to Swansea for further assessment, although Elijah Just is expected to start ahead of him.

A 4-3-3 is expected after Vítor Matos used three different systems over the last five matches, with Adam Idah again leading the line. The forward has started four of those games but was withdrawn every time. Melker Widell is preferred to Joseph Opoku on the left, and Gonçalo Franco to Tom Iorpenda. Cameron Burgess remains unavailable with an Achilles injury, while Ross Stewart has been training with the squad during his recovery from a muscle problem.

Norwich City

Lucien Mahovo featured for Norwich City in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Brentford on 2 October, marking his return to action after an ankle injury.

Anis Ben Slimane, who started three of the last five games before missing the most recent one, was substituted in each of those starts. Jack Stacey is expected to continue at right-back, Andre Brooks is likely to maintain his run of five straight starts on the right, and Pelle Mattsson and Kenny McLean are again expected to be paired in central midfield.
