Team News: Fernando Llorente on bench for Swansea City

Fernando Llorente returns to the Swansea City matchday squad but starts on the bench against Watford.

Bob Bradley has made five changes to the Swansea City starting XI against Watford as he tries to avoid a fifth consecutive defeat for the club.

There is an overhaul at the back as Mike van der Hoorn, Stephen Kingsley and Alfie Mawson - handed his Premier League debut - come in for Neil Taylor, Jordi Amat and Federico Fernandez.

Further forward, Leroy Fer and Jack Cork are demoted to the bench in favour of Ki Sung-yeung and Borja Baston. Modou Barrow is available to start, having recovered from the knock picked up in the Swans' defeat to Arsenal last weekend.

Meanwhile, Fernando Llorente returns to the matchday squad after two games out but is confined to the bench from the outset.

The visiting Hornets display two changes from the win against Middlesbrough last time out, as Odion Ighalo replaces the injured Isaac Success up front and Juan Zuniga comes in for Nordin Amrabat.

Swansea City: Fabianski, Kingsley, van der Hoorn, Mawson, Naughton, Ki, Britton, Routledge, Sigurdsson, Barrow, Borja Baston
Subs: Amat, Taylor, Fer, Llorente, Nordfeldt, Rangel, Cork

Watford: Gomes; Kaboul, Prödl, Britos; Zuniga, Pereyra, Behrami, Capoue, Holebas; Deeney, Ighalo
Subs: Pantilimon, Mariappa, Kabasele, Watson, Amrabat, Guedioura, Sinclair
