Leon Britton: (Knee) Will Miss Opener

Britton will at least miss the first game of the EPL season with a bruised bone in his knee, Swansea City's Official Site reports.

Analysis:

Britton will get his knee scanned in two weeks to determine if he'll have to miss more than just the opening contest against Manchester United on Aug. 16. His absence will open up a spot in the starting lineup, but it's still a bit early to determine who'll get the opportunity to step up into that role.
