Swansea City goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt is hoping to make a rare appearance for the Swans on Sunday when they travel to the Kassam Stadium to play League Two outfit, Oxford United.

The Swedish international signed for Swansea in the summer for a fee of around £600,000, but has unsurprisingly played second fiddle to Lukasz Fabianski so far this season.

Nordfeldt has played just two games for the Swans, with them being in the Capital One Cup against York City and Hull City. But now, he’s eyeing 90 minutes in the ‘big’ FA Cup competition.

“In the countries where I’ve played before, there isn’t much fuss about the cup competitions, but here it is very different,” Nordfeldt said to he club’s official website.

“I know how big the FA Cup is and how much everyone enjoys it. Hopefully I will get the chance to play and experience what the FA Cup is all about.

“I hope to get the chance to play, and if I do I hope to have a quiet afternoon on Sunday,” he added.

“The most important thing is to get through to the next round. If I do play and I try to force things in order to impress, it may backfire, so I’ll just look to do my job if called upon.

“It has been frustrating for both myself and the club this season. I knew Lukasz had a great season last year, but I’m just doing my best to help the club.”

Swansea face the high-fying Oxford United, who are currently third place in League Two. The match will kick-off at 12:00 on Sunday 10th January (BBC Wales).
