Swansea City take on relegation bound Derby County at the Swansea.com Stadium this afternoon looking to stretch their unbeaten run to five games and make it three wins on the bounce.
The Swans will likely be without midfielder Flynn Downes again so Jay Fulton could stay in the starting eleven, or perhaps it could see Joel Latibeaudiere drop out to allow Hannes Wolf to return to left wing back with Jamie Paterson coming back in.

Swans assistant Matt Gill
โThereโs seven games left. We want to finish as high up as possible in the table.
โWe know we need to be right at it because of what is at stake for Derby. Itโs certainly down to us.
โWeโre really keen on putting this third game in a week to bed. Itโs a real focus for us to perform in a Championship week.
โWeโre looking to finish off the week really well. Itโs a really important game to us as well, and we recognise whatโs on it for Derby.โ
Derby boss Wayne Rooney
โI think we know what we have to do, and weโve known what we have to do for some time, with six games left.
“All we have to do is focus on the next game, which is a tough one against Swansea on Saturday, and thatโs what weโll do.
“Weโll keep focusing on that, try to pick up three points and we know itโs going to be a challenge.”
