Nottingham Forest are the visitors on Wednesday night as we play catch-up in the promotion race with two postponed matches recently knocking us off course.
Resurgent Forest have lost only once in the last 11 matches. They drew 0-0 at home to Bournemouth last Saturday, their best chance a header cleared off the line from 37 year-old veteran striker Glen Murray, who scored a brace on his debut in last week’s 0-3 away win over Wycombe.
Swans players will be chomping at the bit to resume league action after a rare Saturday off.
With Brentford losing yesterday, Swans have the longest unbeaten run in the Championship and they are the only side yet to lose a league game in 2021. Their last defeat was away to Derby on 16th December.

Forest just hit the bar in injury time. Awful performance by the Swans so far, passes going astray some straight out of play. Zero shots on target. Forest’s high press and quick breaks have nullified us.
