STARTER BONY BOOSTS SWANS

-

WILFRIED BONY will get the chance to use Swansea’s FA Cup replay with Wolves to warm up for the crunch Premier League clash with Liverpool.

Swans boss Carlos Carvalhal gave the striker (right) 20 minutes to ease himself back into action in the 1-1 draw at Newcastle United last Saturday.

And the Ivorian is set to start against Championsh­ip leaders Wolves at the Liberty Stadium, with a fourthroun­d tie at Notts County on the line.

“It is natural to make changes for Wolves because our main competitio­n is the Premier League,” said Carvalhal.

“We respect the FA Cup and we respect Wolves, but we need to give a chance to those players coming back from injury to see them play.

“We will not take risks with players, but we want to win this game.”
