Swansea City prepare to entertain Southend United at Liberty Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Swans are clearly on top, having won 15 and lost only 3 of the 26 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Liberty Stadium was just last season, in April 2006, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League One match.
