Swansea City face a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers in round three of the Emirates FA Cup.

Nuno Espirito Santo

Wolves have impressed so far this season following the summer appointment of Nuno Espirito Santo, the former Valencia boss, and the addition of a number of notable signings.

The Swans fell at the first hurdle in last season’s FA Cup, going down 2-0 at Hull City.

Their last competitive encounter with Wolves was an extraordinary 4-4 draw in the 2011-12 Premier League campaign.
