Swansea are in good health ahead of their Welsh derby with Cardiff at the Liberty Stadium in the Championship on Saturday (12:45pm).

Paulo Sousa's men are unbeaten in their last nine games, a run of results that has seen them concede just two goals.

They put that record on the line against Dave Jones' high-flyers, but Sousa is buoyed by a near clean bill of health.

Midfielder Ferrie Bodde is a long-term casualty with a knee injury, but only Albert Serran (match fitness) and Guillem Bauza are not going to be considered.

Sousa will again go with just one striker, with Craig Beattie leading the line, meaning Lee Trundle will have to settle for a place on the bench.

The two league games between the sides ended 2-2 last season, while the Swans have gone seven games unbeaten against Cardiff.
