    Swansea City show one change from the midweek win at Stoke City for this afternoon’s clash with Middlesbrough.

    Conor Hourihane comes in for Jamal Lowe as Steve Cooper starts with the same line-up that finished the clash with the Potters.

    You can download today's official team sheet HERE.

    Freddie Woodman continues in goal, while Kyle Naughton, Ben Cabango and Marc Guehi are again in defence for the Swans.

    Connor Roberts and Ryan Manning continue as the wing-backs, with Hourihane joining skipper Matt Grimes, Jay Fulton and Korey Smith in what is expected to be a fluid midfield set-up.

    Midweek match winner Andre Ayew will lead the line for the hosts, while Ryan Bennett is fit enough for a place on the bench after a calf injury.

    Swansea City: Freddie Woodman; Connor Roberts, Kyle Naughton, Ben Cabango, Marc Guehi, Ryan Manning; Korey Smith, Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes (captain), Conor Hourihane; Andre Ayew.

    Substitutes: Ben Hamer, Joel Latibeaudiere, Ryan Bennett, Jake Bidwell, Jamal Lowe, Yan Dhanda, Ollie Cooper, Morgan Whittaker, Paul Arriola.

    Middlesbrough: Marcus Bettinelli, Anfernee Dijksteel, Grant Hall, Sam Morsy, Dael Fry, Yannick Bolasie, Jonny Howson (captain), Paddy McNair, Duncan Watmore, George Saville, Marc Bola.

    Substitutes: Jordan Archer, Chuba Akpom, Marvin Johnson, Djed Spence, Neeskens Kebano, Darnell Fisher, Nathaniel Mendez-Laing.

    Referee: Gavin Ward

    Nice to be able to watch this one, very unusual for Sky to put a live game on at 3.

    Sides are pressing us now and hoping to pick up a rick at the back, which happens. Not sure Coops has the tactical nowse to combat it.
