Swansea City welcome league leaders Manchester City to the Liberty Stadium in Premier League action on Sunday.

Brendan Rodgers’ Swansea have only lost twice at home this season, with striker Danny Graham a key to their success with 10 league goals in 25 appearances.

The Welsh side sit 14th in the table, 11 points clear of the relegation spots and seemingly assured of top-flight football next season.

But they face a high-flying City team that are on a run of four consecutive Premier League wins since their loss to Everton in January.

Roberto Mancini’s side sit two points clear of arch-rivals Manchester United atop the standings.

But despite their recent success, Mancini is not without his problems, after forward Mario Balotelli was disciplined this week for being photographed breaking curfew before CIty’s win against Bolton.

Mancini will need all his expensive talent to break down a flamboyant and exciting Swansea team if his side are to continue their winning streak.
