Sunderland vs. Swansea City: Montero menace looms large for Jones

Jefferson Montero will be looking to maintain his rich vein of form when Swansea City visit Sunderland on Saturday.

Sunderland right back Billy Jones could be set for a stern examination of his capabilities when Swansea City - and more specifically Jefferson Montero - visits the Stadium of Light on Saturday.

Montero is enjoying a blistering start to the Premier League season and has already dazzled world-class fullbacks Branislav Ivanovic and Daryl Janmaat with his speed and trickery.

The Ecuador international gave Ivanovic the runaround as Swansea drew 2-2 at Chelsea on the opening day of the season and was on the end of two bookable first-half challenges from Janmaat during a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United last weekend, earning the Dutchman an early exit.
