It's the fixture fans in South Wales have been waiting for.

And on Sunday, there's bound to be fireworks at the Liberty Stadium when Swansea City take on Cardiff City in the first meeting between the sides since February 2014.

But who are the favourites and who should fans be backing?

We took a look at the key bets for Sunday's game.
