Head-to-head

Swansea are chasing a fourth consecutive win against Palace.

The last time they met, during the Swans’ promotion-winning campaign in 2010-11, the Welsh club won both encounters 3-0.

Both sides have been Football League members since 1920, but this will be only the 17th league game between the sides, and the first in the top flight.

Crystal Palace

Victory would see Palace win back-to-back Premier League home games for the first time since January 2005, when they defeated Aston Villa (2-0) and then Tottenham (3-0).

They have failed to score in nine of their last 16 league games (including play-off matches), scoring 13 times in total.

The Eagles have lost two of their last 26 games at Selhurst Park in all competitions (to Tottenham on 18 August and Birmingham on 29 March).

They have only delivered four crosses successfully to team-mates this season, fewer than any other Premier League side.

There have been 22 penalties (14 won, eight conceded) in Crystal Palace’s last 41 games in the Premier League.

Swansea City

A victory would mean the Swans win consecutive Premier League away games for the first time since November 2012, when they won at Newcastle (2-1) and then at Arsenal (2-0).

Michael Laudrup’s side have lost their last five games against London opposition.

The Swans have conceded seven goals this season, a tally
