Swansea City 0-4 Leeds United highlights: Gnonto double demolishes Swans as Bamford drops out of warm-up

Leeds United visit South Wales this evening as their month-long tour of the United Kingdom continues with a Championship meeting against Swansea City up next.

Leeds boss Daniel Farke has near-enough a full strength squad to pick from in midweek but is without Sam Byram who sustained a muscle injury during the 3-0 win over Rotherham United last Saturday.

Jamie Shackleton has remained with his partner after the birth of his first child and is also understood to be unavailable for tonight's game, barring a late U-turn to be with the squad.

Daniel James, however, is back amongst those available to Farke, making a return to the Swansea.com Stadium. James represented the Swans between 2016 and 2019 before sealing a move to Manchester United. He joins on-loan pair Joe Rodon and Connor Roberts and Joel Piroe in returning to their old stomping ground this Tuesday night.

Luke Williams' side are 16th in the Championship table with nine wins and nine draws from their 31 league outings so far this season. Leeds, meanwhile, trail second place Southampton by a single point having closed the gap on automatic promotion significantly in recent weeks.

All the build-up, team news and live match updates here throughout the evening. Kick-off is 7:45pm.

Swansea City vs Leeds United LIVE

First chance of real note in the second half

54' Ronald cuts inside from the right and shoots towards Meslier. Cullen's boot almost gets enough on it to wrong-foot the Leeds 'keeper but it falls wide of the post.

53' Meslier called into action for the first time this half. Claims a high ball from a left-hand side cross. Not quite the electric start to the first half, not that the away fans will care. Leeds still in control, despite letting Swansea see more of the ball.

Second half kicks off

46' Back underway for the second half. No changes.

HT: Swansea 0-3 Leeds

Dominated the hosts from start to finish. Clinical, but could realistically have had five.

Goals from Summerville, Piroe and Gnonto.

45' Three added on

42' Tymon booked for a cynical pull on Gnonto's shoulder who was breaking away. Get your blue card out, ref.

Leeds are having a ball

38' Summerville takes the ball from Swansea like they're not even there, plays Georginio who flies past his man. Appeals that he was being pulled back as his shot is saved.
