Swansea City boss Francesco Guidolin to miss visit of Norwich City

Swansea City head coach Francesco Guidolin will miss a second straight match due to a chest infection, with Alan Curtis set to take charge for Norwich City's visit.

Swansea City have confirmed that head coach Francesco Guidolin will again be absent for tomorrow's visit of Norwich City in the Premier League.

The Italian is in hospital with a chest infection and had to miss the Swans' surprise 2-1 win at Arsenal on Wednesday, with Alan Curtis stepping in to lead the team at the Emirates.

In a statement this afternoon, Swansea said: "[Guidolin] remains in a comfortable position and is making good progress, but doctors have advised that he misses this weekend's game to continue his recovery.

"He is expected to remain in hospital over the weekend before his release."

Curtis added at a press conference that Guidolin had picked the team for Saturday's match, with the likes of Gylfi Sigurdsson and Alberto Paloschi expected to return.

Swansea go into the match six points clear of Norwich, who occupy the third and final relegation spot with 10 games of the season remaining.
