Meet the officials | Bristol City

Oliver Langford will be the referee when Swansea City host Bristol City at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday (12.30pm).

It will be the first time the official from the west Midlands has travelled to SA1 this season, having taken charge of home games against Queens Park Rangers, Burnley and Preston North End last season.

Having been refereeing since 1995, Langford was promoted to the List of Referees in 2008. When Select Group 2 was introduced by PGMOL ahead of the 2016-17 season, he was one of 18 referees added to that list.

He has taken charge of two play-off semi-finals and the 2017 FA Youth Cup final. Despite not being named a Select Group Official, he is VAR trained and can be part of the officiating team at the top level.

The match will mark the 13th time Langford has overseen a Swans game with all of those games coming in the Championship.

On Saturday, he will be assisted by Hristo Karaivanov and George Byrne, while Chris Kavanagh is the fourth official.
