MIKE Dodds has made four changes to Sunderland's team in his first game as interim head coach.
Callum Styles makes his Sunderland debut and looks likely to play at left wing-back, with Dodds having seemingly switched to a back three.
Jenson Seelt, Abdoullah Ba and Nazariy Rusyn also come into the side, with the suspended Dan Ballard, Romaine Mundle, Mason Burstow and the injured Jack Clarke dropping out.
Eighteen-year-old Thomas Lavery is on the bench for the first team, alongside Caden Kelly. Chris Rigg is also named among the substitutes.
SUNDERLAND: Patterson, Hume, Seelt, O'Nien, Hjelde, Styles, Neil, Ekwah, Ba, Jobe, Rusyn
Subs: Bishop, Pembele, Hemir, Burstow, Mundle, Aouchiche, Rigg, Kelly, Lavery
SWANSEA: Rushworth, Cabango, Allen, Grimes, Patterson, Tymon, Placheta, Cullen, Wood, Naughton, Pereira Martins
Subs: Fisher, Fulton, Darling, Yates, Patino, Kukharevych, Sagoue Jr, Cooper, Lissah
