(Reuters) - Swansea forward Tammy Abraham is doubtful for Saturday's Premier League game against Bournemouth with a back problem but strike partner Wilfried Bony is set to make his first start in nearly two months, manager Paul Clement has said.

Abraham was carried off the pitch after his back went into spasm during last week's 2-0 loss at Burnley. Clement said he was hopeful the 20-year-old's fitness could be assessed again before the visit of 13th-placed Bournemouth.
