The Premier League has one final matchup on the schedule before closing the book on an eventful 2014 as Liverpool play hosts to visiting Swansea City.

Liverpool, who previously knocked off Swansea in Capital One Cup action back in October, enter Monday’s action fresh off a slump-busting 1-0 victory over Burnley on Boxing Day, as the Reds were led by a Raheem Sterling finish. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers, who managed Swansea from 2010-12, will once again turn to goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, who is back in the starting XI after initially being benched for the now injured Brad Jones.

Swansea, meanwhile, picked up a 1-0 victory of their own on Boxing Day via a Gylfi Sigurdsson free kick. The Swans will once again be led by forward Wilfried Bony, who enters Monday sixth in the Premier League with eight goals.

  1. I remember when Coutinho destroyed the U-17 MNT at the DA winter showcase, scoring a brace.
    Perry Kitchen was captain, and future MNT players Juan Agudelo, Joseph Gyau, and Luis Gil.
    Future El Salvador MNT winger, Dustin Corea also played for the US.

    Current Brazil MNT players Neymar, and Wellington Nem also played.

  2. That’s more like it from LFC. Sweet flick by Coutinho to set up Lallana for his brace (of course first goal was assisted by the Swansea keeper).

  3. And just like that LFC revert back to their favorite goal box “zone D” after getting a holiday gift from the Swansea keeper, who likely just committed a blunder of the year candidate.
