Roberto Martínez’s side are aiming for a hat-trick of league wins for the first time this season but face a Swansea team who returned to form against Leicester last weekend and will be smarting from their Capital One Cup exit at Liverpool on Tuesday. Defender Federico Fernández is available after his costly red card at Anfield was rescinded, while the influential duo of Wilfried Bony and Gylfi Sigurdsson should return to bolster their starting lineup.
