[Teams] Liverpool vs Swansea: Coutinho Starts
Liverpool welcome Capital One Cup finalists Swansea City to Anfield on Sunday afternoon looking to get back on track after another disappointing week.
The Reds suffered a shock home loss to West Brom last time out in the league and followed that up with a 2-0 defeat to Zenit in the Europa League on Thursday, so Brendan Rodgers will be keen to get his side to winning ways against his former team.
The Liverpool boss has recalled Daniel Sturridge for the game after he was ineligible to play in midweek while January signing Philippe Coutinho makes his first start for the club. Here are the confirmed line-ups:
Liverpool Team
Reina, Johnson, Enrique, Agger, Carragher, Lucas, Gerrard, Coutinho, Downing, Sturridge, Suarez
Subs: Gulacsi, Skrtel, Henderson, Shelvey, Sterling, Allen, Borini.
Swansea Team
Vorm, Tiendalli, Bartley, Monk, Davies, Britton, Agustien, de Guzman, Hernandez, Lamah, Shechter
Subs: Tremmel, Rangel, Williams, Michu, Routledge, Dyer, Moore

Excited to see coutinho start also good to. Have Sturbridge back if we can put a few of the chances we. Created against westbrom away I think we may get away with 2-1 if poor in front of goal again I’m sad to say another loss 🙁
