Liam Cullen celebration Blackburn away

Swansea City show three changes from the midweek win at Blackburn as they host Leicester City at the Swansea.com Stadium.

Head coach Alan Sheehan had hinted he would make changes on the back of the long journey to East Lancashire, and he brings Liam Cullen, Ronald and Jisung Eom into his starting XI as Ethan Galbraith, Zeidane Inoussa and Manuel Benson drop to the bench.

The Swans are otherwise unchanged from the win at Ewood Park with Lawrence Vigouroux and Josh Tymon - fresh from signing new contracts - being joined by captain Ben Cabango, Josh Key and Cameron Burgess in the home rearguard.

Cullen links up with Marko Stamenic and fellow midweek goalscorer Goncalo Franco in midfield, while Ronald and Eom are on the flanks.

Vipotnik is once again entrusted with leading the line.
