Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Swansea City & Manchester City face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the FA Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!

The visiting Manchester City played their last game only three days ago, a Premier League match. That game was also an away game, at Liverpool. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Swansea City form and stats

Swansea participated in FA Cup the last season, where they reached the 3rd round.

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Liberty Stadium as Swansea City have scored 18 goals to get 29 points from 14 games. The overall stats in the Championship are 8-5-1 (wins-draws-losses). In general it's been a long time since Swansea City tasted defeat here at Liberty Stadium, as they have taken at least one point from their last eleven home games in the league.

The Swansea City supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Norwich City in Championship and win 2-0. In the preceding match a 3-1 victory visiting Rotherham United.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Manchester City to win. Let's see if Swansea are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: one game found revealing zero Swansea City wins, zero draws and one defeat.

Swansea City are traveling soon after this match as the Championship match at Sheffield Wednesday awaits in three days.

Swansea are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 14 games. Swansea City have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 6 goals.

Manchester City form and stats

Manchester was sent out of FA Cup in the semi-finals last season.

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 7 wins, 3 draws and only 1 loss in the Premier League. Things are running smoothly for Manchester who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 14 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Tottenham Hotspur. A great winning streak in away games for Manchester as they have managed to win five matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Manchester United have they travelled home without three points.

Manchester City play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-1 victory visiting Liverpool. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Burnley at their stadium, the result 2-0.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Manchester given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 19 matches with 17 wins as expected, one draw and one surprise home win. The favourites won 14 of these games by at least two goals.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Tottenham Hotspur in just three days.

Manchester has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 21 goals from 11 games. It's not easy to score on Manchester as they have only conceded 7 goals from these away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's zero Swansea victories, one draw and nine Manchester City wins. Over/under statistics; nine of these games ended with three goals or more, one match with two goals or less.
