The key stats for Swansea-Liverpool

The last two league meetings at Swansea have finished in a draw. There has never been three in a row there.

In the Premier League, Liverpool have won three and drawn three of seven meetings with the defeat coming in Brendan Rodgers' last game in charge of the Welsh club in May 2012, Danny Graham scoring the only goal. It was also Joe Allen's last appearance for the Swans.

The Reds are unbeaten in the last five league clashes, winning three and drawing two since that end-of-season defeat in 2012.

Liverpool have only ever won twice in the league at Swansea - those victories coming in April 1958 (2-0) and September 1982 (3-0).

The only league hat-trick scored by a Reds player against the Welsh outfit came in November 1961 when Roger Hunt hit three in a 5-0 win at Anfield. That came in their biggest ever league victory over the Swans.

Although Liverpool have scored 64 goals in 21 home meetings in league and cup, they have mustered only 24 in 15 in Swansea.

But in the last five meetings in all competitions the Reds have scored 17 times, with 15 coming in the last four league clashes.

The Reds have kept clean sheets in each of their last five away games in the Premier League. Should they prevent the Swans from scoring they will equal the club record of six set in 1965-66 and again in 1971-72.

Rodgers was in charge of Swansea 84 times in the league, winning 36, and 96 times in all competitions with 43 wins.

Allen played 127 league games for Swansea, scoring seven times. The midfielder celebrated his 25th birthday two days ago.

Daniel Sturridge has scored four times for Liverpool in 259 minutes of playing time against the Swans. Along with Fulham and Newcastle United, he has scored more league goals against Swansea than any other team.

Rickie Lambert's first goal of three scored in his career against tonight's opponents came in the colours of Rochdale more than 10 years ago.

Steven Gerrard's next goal will see him move into joint-10th place on the club's all-time league goalscorers list. He will join Kenny Dalglish and Michael Owen on 118.

In all competitions, the No.8 will move into outright fifth and overtake Robbie Fowler's tally of 183.

Swansea have been in the top half of the table for the whole season so far, peaking in second place during August when they won their opening three games, including a first day victory at Old Trafford.

Ashley Williams is the only player to have appeared in all of their league games in 2014-15.

Garry Monk's side have kept 10 clean sheets in the Premier League this season - only Chelsea, Southampton, Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion have recorded more.

Swansea's highest Premier League points tally is the 47 they acquired under Rodgers in 2011-12. They currently have 40 points with 10 games left.

Monk has been in charge of Swansea for 42 league games. His record shows 16 wins, 10 draws and 16 defeats.
