Swansea City vs Brentford - Wayne Routledge back to boost Swansea

Swansea will have veteran winger Wayne Routledge back in the squad for Tuesday’s game against Brentford.

Routledge missed Saturday’s 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forest after his wife gave birth to a baby boy on Friday.

Defender Joe Rodon is nearing a return from a broken metatarsal but the match will come too soon.

Midfielder Leroy Fer (hamstring), goalkeeper Erwin Mulder (broken finger) and full-back Martin Olsson (Achilles) remain sidelined.

Brentford could be without defender Yoann Barbet for the trip after he rolled his ankle in the weekend’s goalless draw at Wigan.

Barbet was one of a number of players to need treatment in a match which saw manager Thomas Frank criticise Wigan’s physical approach, though Frank is optimistic they have avoided any further fresh injuries.

Romaine Sawyers did not make the trip with a minor ankle injury but should be fit for Tuesday night.

Lewis MacLeod made his return from a hamstring problem as a substitute but Rico Henry (foot) and Daniel Bentley (shoulder) are continuing their own recoveries.
