Swansea vs Newcastle - as it happened: Jamaal Lascelles' late strike hands visitors all three points

Both Swansea and Newcastle have made underwhelming starts to the season, sitting in 13^th and 14^th place respectively. Things have been particularly frustrating for Magpies boss Rafael Benitez, who did not receive the financial backing that he expected in this summer’s transfer window.

Meanwhile, Swans boss Paul Clement has experienced either a good or a bad transfer window, depending on whose words you believe. The ex-Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea assistant coach opted to sell Swansea’s star men – Gylfi Sigurdsson and Fernando Llorente – for a combined £60m, bringing in Renato Sanches and Wilfried Bony as approximate replacements.

Bony is a former Swansea player, of course, and will want to make an instant impact at the stadium he calls his “garden”. Sanches, winner of the 2016 ‘Golden Boy’ award as Europe’s best player aged 21 or under, will be even keener to impress; his career has stalled at Clement’s ex-employees Bayern.

Both Swansea and Newcastle claimed their first wins of the season last week, and should be in confident moods going into the game. Newcastle will be particularly rejuvenated after last Saturday’s 3-0 victory over West Ham - the sense of relief amongst everyone at the club was palpable.

Sanches suffered a disappointing debut season at Bayern Munich (Getty)

Renato Sanches: The 20-year-old is aiming to reignite his career at Swansea after a desperately disappointing year with Bayern Munich, and could make his debut against Newcastle. Once considered the next wonderkid of European football, Sanches will be desperate to impress.

Best stat…

2: Swansea are something of a bogey team for Newcastle, with the Magpies having beaten the Swans just twice in ten Premier League matches between the sides.

Remember when…

Papiss Cissé scored a superb goal for Newcastle against Swansea in April 2012. The pressing ontological question is: was it a chip or a lob?

Player to watch…

Christian Atsu: Newcastle’s first summer signing is in excellent form. He shows constant willingness to attack full-backs, and provided a superb assist for Joselu in last week’s win over West Ham.

79 mins: Newcastle make their third and final change as Dwight Gayle takes over striker duties from Joselu for the remaining minutes.

What's the Welsh for déjà vu?

85 mins: Paul Clement has thrown Luciano Narsingh into the equation. The Dutch winger takes over from Tom Carroll and has just a few minutes to see whether he can help Swansea rescue a point.

88 mins: Another left wing corner, another free header. The only difference here is the key one: Leroy Fer sends his effort over the crossbar and an opportunity to equalise is passed up by Swansea.

90 mins: The fourth official signals five minutes of stoppage time and suddenly the home fans and players have renewed encouragement.

90+2 mins: Neat link up play from Swansea's two substitutes almost has the desired effect. Wilfried Bony sent Luciano Narsingh free down the right and, with no options in the middle, the former PSV winger thumped a shot towards the near post. Rob Elliot, however, stood firm and blocked the shot with his foot.
