Swansea City host Bristol City at Swansea.com Stadium in a Championship clash.
Victory will lift Swansea up to seventh in the table but a win by three goals or margin will put them sixth.
Bristol City can leapfrog the Swans into tenth position with a win.
Team News
Swansea have no fresh injury concerns to report following their 2-1 win at Coventry last weekend.
Andy Fisher (groin), Aimar Govea (unspecified) and Josh Ginnelly (Achilles) remain absent.

When is Kick-Off?
Swansea host Bristol City at Swansea.com Stadium on Sunday 29 September at 3pm BST, live on Sky Sports in the UK.
Stat Attack
- Swansea are unbeaten in four of their last six league meetings against Bristol City (W3, D1, L2)
- Bristol City have lost three of their last five league visits to Swansea (W2, L3).
- Since the second tier was rebranded to the ‘Championship’, Bristol City are yet to claim three consecutive league wins over Swansea.
- Three of Swansea’s five league goals at home this season were scored before half-time.
- Bristol City have lost each of their last two away games by 3-0 results (L2).
Prediction
Having enjoyed a solid start to their league campaign, Swansea finally seem to be clicking with consecutive league wins, following a clinical victory at Coventry where they struck early then dug in defensively to see the result out.
Bristol City meanwhile are quite inconsistent so it’s hard to predict what to expect, but they first must defend better than in their last two away games and take their chances.
The momentum though is with the Swans and although they will surely face a tough test against a likely tighter Bristol City, I can’t see them losing if they play like they’ve done lately.
Prediction: Swansea 2-1 Bristol City
Result: Swansea 1-1 Bristol City
