Swansea defender Neil Taylor will be involved for the first time this season in the EFL Cup tie at Peterborough on Tuesday night.
Taylor had an extended break after Wales reached the semi-finals of Euro 2016 last month and will feature in a much-changed side, which could see Ki Sung-yueng, Jefferson Montero, Angel Rangel and Nathan Dyer make their first starts of the season.
Former Ajax defender Mike van der Hoorn is in line for his debut, but striker Borja Baston misses out again as Swansea's record signing nurses a leg injury.
Peterborough are without the suspended Jack Baldwin following his dismissal late on in a 2-1 defeat to Oxford United.
Ryan Tafazolli is still unavailable due to a hamstring injury, but boss Grant McCann could have skipper Chris Forrester available after a back injury.
Opta stats
This will be the fourth tie between these sides in the League Cup, with the Posh progressing on two of the previous three occasions.
However, Swansea won the last meeting between the sides, 3-1 in the third round in September 2010, thanks to a Scott Sinclair hat-trick.
Peterborough have lost seven and drawn one of their last eight League Cup games against top-flight opposition, seeing them eliminated from six ties. Their last win came against Liverpool in 1991-92.
Meanwhile, 2013 winners Swansea were knocked out by lower league opposition in last season's tournament, going down 1-0 against Championship Hull.
