Swansea vs Rotherham Team news :
Martin must decide whether to play with a back three or four, as that decision will likely affect Harry Darling’s selection. Morgan Whittaker will continue to play in the attack after scoring against Stoke last time out, but Olivier Ntcham is an option to join the team.
Joel Latibeaudiere and Kyle Naughton could both be called up, especially the former if Martin keeps using a defensive three. Lee Peltier could play center back if it is determined that he has recovered from a similar issue, as Rotherham defender Grant Hall has suffered a hamstring injury. Wes Harding is expected to be called up, and Hakeem Odoffin is ready to take Peltier’s place if Taylor doesn’t want to take any chances with the veteran.
