PNE boosted by Mawene return

The Frenchman strained a hamstring during the 1-1 draw at Doncaster last month and has remained sidelined since. However, the 30-year-old returned to training this week and boss Alan Irvine is hopeful of having him available for the clash with Paulo Sousa's men. Irvine will also be able to call on new recruit Neill Collins for the first time following his arrival from Wolves on a loan deal which could become permanent in January. Left-back Callum Davidson is ruled out for several weeks with a torn hamstring, but would have missed the Swansea match anyway through suspension. His place is likely to go to Eddie Nolan, while Barry Nicholson remains a long-term absentee with a broken leg.
