Lowe fit after neck injury scare

Keith Lowe could make his home Swansea debut on Friday

Swansea defender Keith Lowe said he feared the worse after being stretchered off with suspected neck injury against Colchester on Tuesday.

Lowe, on loan from Wolves, was taken straight to hospital, but was later released and given the all clear.

"I took a blow from behind and hit the ground face first. The doctor and I were very worried," said Lowe.

"But I should be OK for Friday's game with Brentford. I'm looking forward to playing in front of the Swansea fans."

Swansea's automatic promotion push has stalled recently after five successive draws has dropped them to fourth place.

Manager Kenny Jackett says Friday night's game against second-placed Brentford is the perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways.

"They are playing well at the moment and beat us 2-1 at Griffin Park," Jackett told BBC Wales Sport.

"We have a chance to peg them back to one point ahead and we have to focus on that.

"If we do that they will still have two games in hand, but as we all know things can happen in football.

"We are chasing the top two places now which can be a different type of approach and sometimes can be easier to focus on."
