PREM: Swansea v Arsenal preview

Swansea v Arsenal preview

New signing Luciano Narsingh will not be available to make his Swansea debut against Arsenal on Saturday.

The winger became the Swans first signing of the transfer window when he joined for £4m from PSV Eindhoven on Thursday.

However, he will not feature against Arsenal due to a calf problem.

The match at the Liberty Stadium will be Paul Clement's first home game since being appointed as Swansea head coach.

Clement was in the dugout as the Swans ended a four-match losing streak with victory at Crystal Palace in their last league match.

Arsenal, meanwhile, staged a late fightback in their previous league game as they came from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 with Bournemouth.

However, they start the weekend fifth in the Premier League, eight points behind leaders Chelsea, who travel to Leicester on Saturday evening.

Swansea will be without Narsingh and also Neil Taylor, who misses out after fracturing his cheekbone in training.

Stephen Kingsley or Angel Rangel is expected to deputise for Taylor, while Lukasz Fabianski, Alfie Mawson, Wayne Routledge and Fernando Llorente should return after being rested for the FA Cup defeat at Hull last weekend.

Mesut Ozil is available for Arsenal after missing the last three matches with illness.

Laurent Koscielny, Petr Cech and Alexis Sanchez will return after they were rested in the FA Cup, but Theo Walcott (calf), Santi Cazorla (Achilles), Mohamed Elneny (international duty), Per Mertesacker and Kieran Gibbs (both knee), Hector Bellerin (ankle) and Francis Coquelin (hamstring) are out.
