Swansea V Arsenal - Preview and possible lineups

Swansea: A host of players are expected to be recalled after being rested for the FA Cup draw with Notts County on Saturday, with Lukasz Fabianski, Sam Clucas and Jordan Ayew all expected to come back in. Portuguese playmaker Renato Sanches is unlikely to feature though, having suffered a hamstring injury at Meadow Lane.

Arsenal: Arsene Wenger could hand Henrikh Mkhitaryan a debut after he completed his move from Manchester United, whilst Olivier Giroud is available again following a hamstring injury. Striker Danny Welbeck will miss this one, whilst playmaker Santi Cazorla remains sidelined long-term.

Swansea boss Carlos Carvalhal on potential transfers before Wednesday's deadline:

"We need players to try and improve the team. If we don't get players I do believe we can stay in the Premier. If we do get in players I will believe.

"It is not the case that I don't think we need players or want players. I want to make this very clear as they are very different things. I want players, but if I don't get players I still believe we will stay up.

"It will be harder but let's see. We have not brought in any players but we have lost just once in seven games and against good teams."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger on Swansea's win over Liverpool:

"What is a good warning for us is that Liverpool are an attacking team - you cannot criticise them for not attacking, they are very dangerous going forward and they didn't manage to score against Swansea.

"That is a good warning for us that we have to produce an absolute total offensive performance."
