Struggling Swansea host seventh place Everton in the Premier League on Saturday (5.30pm kick-off) in dire need of points to stave off relegation.

Paul Clement’s men remained within two points of safety after deservedly drawing 1-1 at Manchester United last weekend, but with just three games left, the Swans need to start turning those draws into victories.

And they perhaps should’ve won at Old Trafford on Sunday had striker Fernando Llorente got a telling contact on Gylfi Sigurdsson’s whipped free-kick, yet manager Clement will be hoping that if he gets a chance against the Toffees on Saturday, he’ll add to his 12 league goals this term.

However, it won’t be easy against Ronald Koeman’s Everton, who will look to keep the pressure on the top six with victory at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday.

The Toffees are just two points behind Arsenal in sixth as the Merseyside outfit look to break into the top six domination, and one man who has helped them in that quest this term is striker Romelu Lukaku, who will look to add to his league-high tally of 24 goals in South Wales on Saturday.

So, with these two key strikers set to go head-to-head on Saturday, here is how Llorente and Lukaku match up in the league this season…
