City are in fine form heading in to this FA Cup clash, amassing an unbeaten run of 21 matches, and a winning streak of 14 in all competitions.

The Swans sit third in the Championship, a single point off top spot, are unbeaten since mid-December and triumphed over league leaders Norwich City 2-0 in their last outing.

It should be a great match as both look to win and advance on to the next round.
