 Andy Robinson scored Swansea's winner |
Swansea City have confirmed they will be without Leon Britton and Andy Robinson for a fortnight. The midfield pair sustained hamstring injuries in Tuesday night's 2-1 win at Cheltenham, Robinson scoring the winner as they rose to fourth in League One.
Better news is that Owain Tudur-Jones and Darren Way are set to play for Swansea reserves on Wednesday night.
Both have been sidelined by long-term injuries, while Dutch midfielder Ferrie Bodde is likely to have a run-out.
Bodde has now completed his three-match ban after being sent off for violent conduct against Doncaster at the beginning of September.
Swans manager Roberto Martinez confirmed: "Both players have the same hamstring problem."
Martinez was full of praise for his players after they came from behind thanks to Robinson's 25-yard drive and Jason Scotland grabbing his sixth goal of the season.

"It's really, really hard to come to places like Cheltenham and you need to be ready," he said.
"I think in the first 15 minutes they caught us cold and they played the way they normally play at home and we couldn't cope with it and that was disappointing.
"The good thing was the way they reacted and showed the attitude of a winning team to try and get a result when the adversity was there.
"It is a frustrating time when things aren't going the way you expect them to.
"When you don't feel you have done yourself justice as a team it really hurts and that's why we've seen that kind of reaction in the second half. That was the pleasing aspect."
