Team news
The Swans will have three sure absences due to injury: Fernando Llorente, Nathan Dyer and Ki Sung-yueng. Leon Britton could join these players on the sidelines if he's not able to recover from a back problem he picked up during the week.
On the other side of the pitch, José Mourinho will have to make do without Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo and Ashley Young. Nevertheless, after beating West Ham with ease, it's doubtful to see The Special One changing something from his winning squad.
