Swans' fears over Painter eased
Swansea full-back Marcos Painter's leg injury sustained in the 2-1 win over Brighton is not as bad as first feared.

The full-back, a cornerstone of the defence this year, was forced off after 46 minutes, but a scan has revealed a bruised knee.

The ex-Birmingham defender will be monitored over the next 48 hours, and could be back for Saturday's crunch League One game at Carlisle.

The Brighton comeback win has left Swansea on the cusp of the play-offs.

The Welsh club are level on points with Oldham, who sit in the final play-off spot courtesy of a goal difference just two better than the Swans.
