Swansea City vs Liverpool: Premier League match preview
Monday night’s return of Brendan Rodgers to South Wales

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers returns to his former club once more, having spent two years at The Liberty Stadium prior to his move to Merseyside in 2012. Liverpool will be looking to record a fifth straight league win as their 2015 renaissance has taken them to the cusp of a Champions League spot.
Swansea, meanwhile, have enjoyed a mixed bag of results as of late with Bafetimbi Gomis failing to fill the void left by the departure of Manchester City-bound Wilfried Bony in January.

CLASSIC MOMENT:
Swansea 2-2 Liverpool - 2012
Former Red Jonjo Shelvey proved to be hero and villain for both sides in a bizarre encounter as he was involved in all four goals during a 2-2 draw at the Liberty Stadium in September 2013. Not only did he open the scoring and set up Michu’s equaliser, but he seemingly forgot that he had swapped teams in the summer when he played in both Daniel Sturridge and Victor Moses with stray back-passes.
