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

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.

Swansea City vs Leeds United LIVE
GNONTOOOOOOOOOOO 3-0
36' Another move down the right and Leeds have it in the back of the net again. Gray receives from Rodon, takes a touch, assesses his options, spots Gnonto's run and clips it over defenders into his path. Italian does the rest, cutting inside Wood and finding the bottom corner.
End-to-end involvement
28' Meslier makes an important save from Ronald inside the area, closing angle down. Kamara heads away ricochet before Georginio is clipped as he advanced. Up the other end, Frenchman takes down a lovely ball, shoots but Rushworth gets down to it.
Dangerous
16' Another lightning counter from a home corner catches Swansea out completely. Kamara speeds away, Summerville threads it to Gnonto, Leeds 3-v-1 but the Italian is denied by a big save.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLL PIROE 2-0
10' Two-nil, quick as that. Played down the right, Gnonto plays it into the feet of Piroe who has bags of space to saunter forward and pick his spot past Rushworth.
GOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLL SUMMERVILLE 1-0
8' Looked to take a deflection on the way through but it's the Dutchman's 15th of the season from his sort of range. Coming in off the left-hand side, ball retrieved by Georginio following a corner, finds Summerville who hits the back of the net.
Corner ball
6' One end to the other. Meslier claims high in Leeds' box, rolls one out to Georginio who feeds Gnonto. He breezes past Tymon but his cross is blocked by the Swans' defender. Corner.
