3rd placed Swansea travel to 2nd placed Cardiff in what has been billed as the biggest derby of all time as both sides chase a place amongst the game’s elite.

And 11 goal Sinclair is excited to be part of the build up to such a big game after experiencing most of the same at Chelsea from the sidelines.

โ€œAt Chelsea, every game is huge,โ€ Sinclair told Wales on Sunday. โ€œThere has been a big build-up to the game but itโ€™s like that every week at Chelsea because every game is a big occasion. We were treated like the other sideโ€™s cup final.

โ€œThe difference this time is that Iโ€™m involved. Iโ€™ve had a taste before being on the bench or involved in the squads. Now I know Iโ€™m very much a part of things.

โ€œIโ€™m getting used to having two men on me. Iโ€™m starting to come up with different movements and different game plans, so when it happens I can still get on the ball and run at those defenders.

โ€œMaybe because Cardiff have got a lot of attacking players, there might be more space for me.

โ€œBut if thereโ€™s not, then it will free more space for others.

โ€œThe success weโ€™ve had this season has been more about us playing the way we have as a team rather than what individuals have done.

โ€œIโ€™m doing well and Iโ€™m happy with my progress, but itโ€™s still very much about the team. If you look at my goals they are pretty much all team goals.

โ€œEven though itโ€™s me getting on the scoresheet itโ€™s about what weโ€™re doing as a collective that counts.โ€
