Swansea City: Cyrus Christie is among the options to face Watford, while Josh Tymon has been ruled out

Luke Williams has a decision to make at left back on Tuesday when Swansea City host Watford, with Josh Tymon missing due to suspension.

Tymon was a regular for Williams at Swansea, but the former Stoke City man will face the Hornets after picking up a fifth yellow card of the season in last weekend’s win over Oxford United.

The signing of free agent Cyrus Christie last week means head coach Williams has a number of options when it comes to replacing Tymon.

Although he is most at home as a right-back, Christie – who played as a substitute at Oxford – has plenty of experience operating on the left flank.

Another player on the right who could be asked to fill in on the left is Kyle Naughton, while Williams could also turn to Indonesian international Nathan Tjoe-A-On or on-loan Olympiacos defender Nelson Abbey, although he is in the first and foremost is a central defender. .
