Welcome to the Independent's live coverage of Swansea City's meeting with bottom club Aston Villa in the evening kick-off on an intriguing day of Premier League action.

Remi Garde's men are widely tipped to drop down into the Championship but will have to start winning today if they are to perform a great escape which would rival Leicester's last season.

The Swans, however, are enjoying an upturn in form and seem certain to remain in the top-flight.
