Cardiff away Flynn Downes

Flynn Downes returns to the Swansea City starting line-up as Russell Martin makes just one change for the Easter Monday visit to Reading.

Downes lines up alongside Matt Grimes in midfield, while Cyrus Christie and Hannes Wolf are the wing-backs.

Jamie Paterson, Joel Piroe and Michael Obafemi once again make up the Swansea front three.
