Team News: Fernando Llorente leads line for Swansea City

New Swansea City signing Fernando Llorente leads the line for their trip to Burnley.

New Swansea City signing Fernando Llorente will lead the line for their trip to Burnley this afternoon.

Manager Francesco Guidolin names Leon Britton as his captain for the game following Ashley Williams's departure for Everton earlier this week, while Gylfi Sigurdsson starts among the subs after Iceland's extended run at Euro 2016.

The fixture comes too soon for new signing Borja Baston, who will instead watch from the stands, while Mike van der Hoorn is named on the bench.

As for the hosts, Sean Dyche names the same side that won the Championship last season, with Andre Gray and Sam Vokes starting up front.

Jon Flanagan, who joined the Clarets on loan from Liverpool, is not named in the matchday squad as he continues to work back up to full fitness.

Burnley: Heaton; Ward, Mee, Keane, Lowton; Boyd, Marney, Jones, Arfield; Gray, Vokes
Subs: Kightly, Jutkiewicz, Ulvestad, Gudmundsson, Tarkowski, Darikwa, Robinson

Swansea City: Fabianski; Kingsley, Amat, Fernandez, Naughton; Britton, Fer, Cork; Routledge, Barrow; Llorente
Subs: Nordfeldt, Rangel, Van der Hoorn, Fulton, Dyer, Montero, Sigurdsson
