Merson predicts the winner of the clash between Liverpool and Swansea

Anfield

Paul Merson has predicted a comfortable win for Liverpool when they play against Swansea on Boxing Day.

Merson predicted a 4-0 win for Liverpool and said: “It was not the worst result in the world for Swansea on Saturday the way Palace have been playing (1-1), but I just think Liverpool are irresistible, are they not?”

The Reds have been playing some quality attacking football this season and are currently in fourth place on the League standings after taking 35 points from their opening 19 encounters.

Swansea meanwhile are on a low after parting ways with manager Paul Clement last week and they are currently rooted to the bottom of the standings.

The Swans have another relegation battle on their hands this season and it will be hard to see them coping successfully against the threat of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho and Sadio Mane when they face off against Swansea.
