Swans waiting on injured pair
Skipper Monk has suffered a recurrence of the calf injury which kept him out of the South Wales derby victory against Cardiff and is unlikely to face the Rams.[LNB]Former Southend midfielder Gower also missed out against the Bluebirds and is yet to fully recover from a back problem.[LNB]Alan Tate will captain the side if Monk is ruled out and will slot in at centre-half alongside Ashley Williams, with Fede Bessone filling in for Tate at left-back.[LNB]Nathan Dyer replaced Gower for the Cardiff clash and the former Southampton winger would have a case for starting regardless of whether Gower is passed fit after scoring against Dave Jones' side.[LNB]Boss Paulo Sousa could opt to rest midfielder Joe Allen, who was away with Wales Under-21s in midweek, with Andrea Orlandi waiting in the wings to replace him.[LNB][LNB]
