Swansea boss Michael Laudrup will be without a trio of his star names as his side prepare to welcome free-scoring Manchester City to the Liberty Stadium.
Striker Michu, goalkeeper Michel Vorm and midfielder Nathan Dyer all remain sidelined for the New Year's Day clash.
Both the Spaniard and Dutchman are recovering from recent surgeries while Dyer will be out of action for some time with an ankle ligament injury.

Boss Laudrup may again opt to rotate his squad, with Leon Britton, Wayne Routledge and Angel Rangel all in contention for a start.

Provisional squad: Amat, Taylor, Flores, Williams, Britton, Shelvey, Bony, Hernandez, Cornell, Lamah, Routledge, Tiendalli, De Guzman, Rangel, Canas, Pozuelo, Tremmel, Vazquez, Richards, Davies, Zabret.
