Swansea City is set to face Manchester City in the Carabao Cup fourth round tie with Jarred Gillett as the lead on-field match referee. The Swans come into this match having beaten Premier League opposition in Nottingham Forest in a 3-2 home win in round three. Pep Guardiola's side will be aiming to get back to winning ways immediately after their nine-match unbeaten run across competitions came to an end on Sunday afternoon through a narrow 1-0 defeat at Aston Villa. A solitary first-half goal from right-back Matty Cash squandered Manchester City's hopes of extending their fine run of form. The trip to South Wales this week now becomes of even greater importance, particularly from a silverware perspective. Jarred Gillett has taken charge of six matches this season, all of which have come in Premier League action while handing out a total of 20 yellow cards, one straight red card, and awarding two penalties in that period. Gillett has already overseen Manchester City on one previous occasion this season, taking charge of Pep Guardiola's side's dominant Premier League opening weekend win over Wolves at Molineux – a 0-4 result for the Sky Blues. City remain unbeaten in all of their matches where Jarred Gillett has acted as on-field match referee, winning nine of the 11 such encounters and drawing the other two fixtures during that period. The assistant referee pairing of Adrian Holmes and Marc Perry will accompany Jarred Gillett on the field in South Wales this week. Referee Josh Smith will stand between the two dugouts this week at the Swansea.com Stadium for the clash between Swansea City and Manchester City in the role of fourth official, managing the actions of Alan Sheehan and Pep Guardiola's respective benches. Swansea City's Championship results so far have recorded four wins, four draws, and four defeats across their matches in England's second division, coming into the clash against Pep Guardiola's side off the back of a 2-1 home win over Norwich City. The EFL have now announced the list of match officials to oversee proceedings at the Swansea.com Stadium. Swansea City's squad has shown promising performances, and their win over Nottingham Forest in the previous round has given them confidence ahead of the match against Manchester City. The match is expected to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams looking to advance to the next round of the Carabao Cup.
