Swansea will assess Ki Sung-yueng ahead of Saturday's Barclays Premier League home game with Newcastle.

The South Korean midfielder was forced off in the first half of the opening-day 2-2 draw against Chelsea with a sore hamstring and Jack Cork, an impressive replacement at Stamford Bridge, will start if Ki does not make it.

Jefferson Montero was also taken off at Chelsea as a precaution after cramping up but the Ecuador winger is fit and available for Swansea's first home game of the season.

Midfielder Vurnon Anita has been included in the Newcastle squad for Saturday's Barclays Premier League trip to Swansea after overcoming a back injury.

The Holland international was carried from the field on a stretcher after hurting his back in last weekend's 2-2 home draw with Southampton, but has made a speedy recovery.

Striker Emmanuel Riviere has undergone minor surgery on a knee cartilage, while midfielder Remy Cabella (hip/thigh) has returned to training and will be joined by defender Paul Dummett (hamstring) next week. Midfielder Sylvain Marveaux (groin) remains on the sidelines.

Swansea squad: Fabianski, Naughton, Fernandez, Williams, Taylor, Ki, Cork, Shelvey, Ayew, Sigurdsson, Gomis, Nordfeldt, Rangel, Bartley, Amat, Tabanou, Fulton, Britton, Routledge, Emnes, Dyer, Eder, Montero, Grimes.

Newcastle squad: Krul, Darlow, Janmaat, Coloccini, Mbemba, Taylor, Lascelles, Williamson, Haidara, Tiote, Anita, Sissoko, Wijnaldum, De Jong, Colback, Obertan, Aarons, Gouffran, Cisse, Mitrovic, Perez.
