Joe Ledley returns to Crystal Palace XI

Joe Ledley has returned to the Crystal Palace XI for their home Premier League match with Swansea City on Tuesday night.

Ledley for Mathieu Flamini is the only change from the team that lost against Arsenal on Sunday, meaning that Christian Benteke will continue in the final third with support from Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha.
