West Brom are poor at home and Swansea aren't great away, so what's going to happen at the Hawthorns? Here's what Opta say...

Swansea scored three goals from just four shots on target in the meeting with the Baggies in September, while West Brom failed to score with five shots on target.

There has been a penalty scored in three of the last four meetings between Swansea and West Brom.

West Brom have won just two of their last 11 Premier League home games (W2 D2 L7) and have picked up just one point from the last 15 available at the Hawthorns.

Swansea have failed to score in four of their last six Premier League away matches.

Swansea have only lost one of their last six Premier League games (W2 D3 L1).

The Welsh side have committed fewer fouls than any other team in the Premier League (197).

West Brom have won just one of their last six Premier League games (W1 D2 L3).

West Brom have kept just one clean sheet in their last 15 Premier League games.

The Baggies have scored 26% of their goals in the opening 15 minutes this season, a higher proportion than any other side.

Ashley Williams has blocked more shots than any other player in the Premier League (33).

Liverpool have hit form recently and are even able to welcome Luis Suarez back on Monday night - will they halt Tottenham's title bid?...

Chelsea's home record hasn't been great this season, however after tripping up leaders Manchester City in December, they will be hopeful of causing Manchester United trouble......

Aston Villa were humiliated on their last visit to Tyneside, but will have an opportunity to claim revenge in front of the cameras on Sunday lunchtime......

Fulham have been a bit of a bogey team for Manchester City in recent seasons - will they be the ones to end the Premier League leaders' perfect home record?...
