That match will be tonight's Carling Cup tie against Hull at the Liberty when he will get a central midfield start as the Swans aim to upset Premier League new boys Hull City.
And Owain aims to take all the chances that come his way after so long out of the game knowing that strong performances could see him leap into Championship contention.
Speaking to the Evening Post, the Welsh midfielder said "I'm pleased that the team are doing well, the lads who are playing in midfield at the moment are the ones who did so well for the club last year and no-one can begrudge them being in the side now.
"They deserve this opportunity and there is not a lot someone like me can do as long as the team is winning.
"But every footballer wants to play and, after a good pre-season it's frustrating for me not to be involved.
"It's a strong area of the squad," Tudur Jones admits, "and everybody brings something different, which is good news for the club.
"It's great for me to be going back in and training every day.
"It makes a huge difference to where I was a year ago and two years ago because I missed both pre-seasons.
"This time the management know I've got a good pre-season under my belt and that I'm fit and ready when needed.
"Hopefully, that will be tonight."
"It was good to play against Brentford and hopefully there will be another chance against Hull," says Tudur Jones.
"It's a case of keeping yourself ticking over when you're not in the side and then trying to do well when the chance comes.
"I'll try to do okay if I'm picked and at the same time hopefully help the club progress to the next round, because I don't think we've got a great record in this competition.
"We have to have a strong squad when you look at the fixture list that lies ahead.
"And when you look at the players we've got, they all believe they can do a job in the first team.
"We're not talking about young lads who are unlikely to get a chance. We've got 14 or 15 players who are ready to step into the side
"I feel I'm more mature now and that I've developed as a player," says the Welsh international.
"All the games I've had to watch, I've been trying to get into my head what sort of qualities I will need to get picked by the manager.
"You have to do that in football because if you stand still, you'll get left behind."
