EUROPA LEAGUE GROUP A: VALENCIA V SWANSEA CITY Venue: Mestalla, Valencia

Kick-off: 18:00 BST Coverage: Live BBC Radio Wales commentary; live text updates on the BBC Sport website.

Winger Pablo Hernandez will miss Swansea's first group game in the Europa League, against his former club Valencia on Thursday.

The 28-year-old Spaniard has been ruled out because of a hamstring strain and will also sit out Sunday's Premier League match at Crystal Palace.

But Swans striker Wilfried Bony will be fit to face Valencia.

He sustained a rib injury during Monday's 2-2 Premier League draw with Liverpool at the Liberty Stadium.

Having played in the Europa League and Champions League for the Spanish club, he had hoped his friends and family would have the chance to see him in action there for the Swans.

Speaking before he sustained his hamstring injury, Hernandez said: "Valencia are a big team, and the [other Europa League group] matches against Kuban and St Gallen will be very difficult too.

"But if we can finish first and Valencia second then that would be perfect for me.

"The Mestalla is a big stadium in Spain, and they have great fans too."

Swansea qualified for the group stage of the Europa League after beating both Malmo of Sweden and Romanian side Petrolul Ploiesti in the qualifying rounds.

The Swans entered the Europa League by winning the Capital One Cup with a 5-0 victory over Bradford City at Wembley in February.

What a win this will be, it is hard to believe we are beating Valencia 0-3 in the Mestalla.

Bony has been a real bonus on defensive set pieces. It seems like he gets half of the clearances.

I actually quite like Lamah after this performance. Seems a handy winger. Different to what we have.
Amat looks like a quality addition too. We have such strength in depth this season

Trundle could still do a job..

It may be a bit premature, but I would be disappointed if we didn't finish top of the group after tonight's performance. Great result for us.

I am glad we lost to Barnsley in the play-offs, everything would have been so much different if we won, even though it was gutting at the time.

Got mixed feelings about this game, really liked seeing the Swans playing as well as they did, but at the same time It hurts to watch one of my childhood favorite teams play so badly.

Compared to the Valencia team with Lopez, Ayala and Canizares this team we saw today is hardly a shade of the team they had a decade ago.
Valencia to me has always been a club of solid defense, great keeper and a fast Counter. I didn't see any of that today.


Been supporting the Swans since preeseason last year(Always been a fan of offensive good football, Spanish teams have always had more interest from me than others which is one of several reasons I started following the Swans)


Anyway had hoped for a 2-2 Result pree match, but a 3-0 was deserved.

Forget Valencia's form, forget the sending off, that was a good performance especially away from home.

0-3 away win in Valencia — yeah, I guess I’d have taken that before the game.

I think that was the best performance by any British side in Europe that I have ever seen.
Forget how bad Valencia were or not, we were absolutely fantastic.Ten out of ten for everyone.

That was nice.


Had a look at some reaction from other clubs, liked this quote from a Sunderland fan:

"I often get sick of the Swansea w*nk fest but if I'm being honest I just wish it was us."

What a result! Didn't see that one coming!

The only slight disappointment for me was that the likes of Britton, Ash, Routledge and Monk didn't get to play any part, because this result is the culmination of our amazing progress over the last few years.
