Fresh from a win at Derby County in midweek the Swans could have Eom back in the squad. Sam Parker is out but Aimar Govea is available. Whether he is considered today though is another thing. Harry Darling is fit and we expect a very familiar look to the Swans side this afternoon.

What to read next:
Swans in another goal glut game but no finishing power If we look at the players who just are not performing for the Swans then three new bodies are needed come January. If these individuals can be replaced it may well give the Swans the lift they need, especially in games like today. Having said that the Swans had more than enough chances to win this game today.
Swans v Pompey : An odd connection & pre match chatIt’s match day again, when you play on a Wednesday they really come round quickly. After today v Portsmouth at the Swansea.com (3pm) the Swans will have a week off … before travelling to Luton for a game next Saturday.
Swansea City ready to increase misery on Pompey ? The last time Portsmouth played was on November 9th. That day they beat Preston 3-1. Bearing in mind that came before the International break and some twenty one days ago tomorrow they certainly do come into this game fresh.
Swansea City turn the tables on their bad luck & beat Derby I am going to make no apologies for this match report. The win was deserved, but how it came about after so many poor performances in the second half I will never know. I haven’t been watching football as long as some and I am delighted of course the Swans got the points. However, we have seen teams do that to us for a few seasons. Just maybe for once it was our turn ?
