LIVERPOOL FC's rearranged Premier League match with Swansea City will take place at Anfield on Sunday, February 17 (kick-off 3pm).
The match was due to be played a week later but had to be rescheduled due to the Swans' participation in the Capital One Cup final.
With Liverpool and Swansea both already knocked out of the FA Cup, the clubs will instead meet on the weekend when the fifth round ties will be played.
Liverpool arrived home from St Petersburg on Thursday night to the prospect of a league opponent truly at its zenith. In a week's time, the club is expected to secure its first major honour in the League Cup Final, with Bradford awaiting them at Wembley.
Fresh from their mighty thumping of Harry Redknapp's bionically rebuilt QPR, but with the memory of their 1-0 reverse at the Boleyn just as current in their minds, the match at Anfield promises a great deal for the neutral. While Swansea's away record in the league of late has been mixed, we saw in October how effective Laudrup's team can be on the counter, and their display is surely one of the most impressive we've seen at Anfield in recent years.
