Swansea City v Everton: match preview

Swansea City v Everton
Swansea City v Everton: probable starters in bold, contenders in light.

Swansea have never beaten Everton in the league though they saw them off 3-0 in the League Cup and another win would take the Swans past the previous-best points total of 47. For Roberto Martínez it is back to the club where it all started as a manager and after a season’s best three league wins in a row, will be looking to extend that as the race for places and prize money intensifies.
