Swansea City are likely to be without midfielder Leon Britton and forward Marvin Emnes for their Premier League opener against Manchester United.

Britton is suffering from a badly bruised bone in his knee, while Emnes has a cartilage problem.

The club reports that both players will undergo further scans in a fortnight to "assess the full damage".

But Swansea say both players are to make the match at Old Trafford on 16 August.
