Geoff Eltringham will be the man in the middle for Swansea City’s meeting with Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on Friday (3pm kick-off).

It will be the second time the Durham-based official has taken charge of a Swansea game this season, having last had the whistle for the 1-0 victory away at Hull City.

He handed out four yellow cards that day with Ben Cabango, Matt Grimes and Bashir Humphreys booked for the Swans.

Eltringham has been part of Select Group 2 since its inception in 2016. He has no shortage of experience, blowing the whistle on more than 400 EFL matches.

This season, he’s taken charge of 22 fixtures, mainly in the Championship, and has given out 90 yellow cards and two reds so far this term.

On Good Friday, he will be assisted by Daniel Leach and Carl Fitch-Jackson. Ross Joyce will be fourth official.
