Geoff Eltringham will be the man in the middle when Swansea City face Preston North End at Deepdale on Saturday.

Eltringham was in charge of the draw with Hull, the home win over Blackburn and the away defeat at Sheffield Wednesday.

He has been refereeing in the EFL since 2009, and has been a regular feature in the Championship over recent seasons.

James Mainwaring and James Wilson will be Eltringham's assistants, while Joe Hull is the fourth official.
