ENG LCH PREVIEW: Derby County vs Swansea
Posted Friday, November 30, 2018 by PA
Captain Curtis Davies is a fresh injury absentee for Derby ahead of their home game against Swansea.
The central defender suffered suspected damage to his Achilles during Wednesday night’s 2-1 defeat at Stoke and had to be carried off on a stretcher shortly before half-time.
Davies, who only recently returned to action after a hamstring injury, is due to see a specialist on Friday to assess the full extent of the problem.
Craig Forsyth (knee) and Mason Bennett (hamstring) remain out but midfielder George Evans is back in contention following an injury-plagued campaign so far.
Swansea have no new problems as they look to bounce back from successive Sky Bet Championship defeats.
The trip to Pride Park will come too soon for former Derby loan player Tom Carroll and Luciano Narsingh.
Midfielder Carroll (hip) has been out since the 3-1 victory over Blackburn at the end of October while attacker Narsingh is yet to make a first-team appearance this season.
Kyle Naughton, Jay Fulton, Barrie McKay and Wilfried Bony are among those available for recalls should Swans boss Graham Potter want to make any changes.
