Swansea City v Preston live: Kick-off time, team news and score updates

Swansea City continue their Championship campaign on Saturday afternoon, with Preston North End the visitors to the Swansea.com Stadium.

The Swans kicked off their league efforts with a flat 1-0 defeat at the hands of Middlesbrough last weekend, a performance Luke Williams admitted demonstrated the need to further strengthen before the close of the transfer window.

The mood around the club's transfer activity remains anxious, with just four players coming in on the back of 15 departures this summer, but attention now turns to matters on the pitch this afternoon.

A reasonably convincing win over Gillingham in the Carabao Cup has potentially injected some optimism heading into this clash, although Williams will be desperate to get a league win under his belt, particularly with the small matter of the South Wales derby coming into view.
