    Llorente puts Swansea aheadpublished at 18:01 British Summer Time 6 May 2017

    Swansea 1-0 Everton

    Just after Swansea appeal for a penalty for a foul on Sigurdsson, Jordan Ayew weaves down the right, outsmarts Gareth Barry with a tricky ball into the box and the big man Llorente heads it home. He towers over Phil Jagielka. 

    Swansea are out of the drop zone. Hull are in it.

    Some guy has paid a lot of money for a ticket to this game and he's being chucked out after 26 minutes for running on the pitch to try and hug Romelu Lukaku.

    That was awful. 

    Gylfi Sigurdsson sort of toe-pokes the free-kick forward and goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg claims it with ease. 

    What a waste.

    Swansea 0-0 Everton

    Ashley Williams is once again in the right place at the right time to clear from Jordan Ayew on the right.

    The corner comes in but Fernando Llorente is dispossessed. He looked too lethargic there.

    And in an unfortunate turn of events, Mason Holgate's pass bounces off the back of the ref's legs and Swansea go on the charge!

    Ayew sprints forward and is bundled over. Swansea free-kick about 30 yards out.

    Swansea 0-0 Everton

    Romelu Lukaku, hanging around the box, tries to chest down a ball from Kevin Mirallas but he's penalised for a handball. I won't repeat what I think he said about the decision as I'll get the sack. 

    Everton push forward again...Mason Holgate sends over a cross from the right but it goes out of play on the left. He holds his hands up to apologise.

    Corner to Everton. Ashley Williams is up to get in on the action.

    Leighton Baines sends it in, but it's cleared. 

    Goldilocks Tom Davies has tracked back towards the half-way line and he pings a lovely looping ball into the box but Dominic Calvert-Lewin can't get on the end of it.

    We might as well start this game again. Nothing has happened.

    I'll be honest, this is pretty dull so far.

    Kevin Mirallas makes a weaving run for Everton but he makes an erroneous pass backwards so his running was for nothing. 

    Manager Ronald Koeman gets out his fancy notebook and pen and starts scribbling some notes on what he's seen so far.

    The nervousness is out there and so apparent on the field. Everton are inconsistent away from home while Swansea's side are too static. There's not enough forward movement, so at the moment all of the game is being played in the middle of the park. 

    Both sides have seen some of the ball but neither side has gone anywhere.

    Paul Clement is almost on the pitch. He's way out of his technical area, marching up and down, screaming and pointing frantically. 

    His Swansea players are building some momentum. Kyle Naughton takes a throw-in on the right and it loops into the box.

    Jordan Ayew wants it but is out-muscled. He's looking at the ref. He thinks he's been held, but Martin Atkinson isn't having it.

    We wondered how the Swansea fans would greet their former captain and one of their greatest ever defenders Ashley Williams and it is fair to say he's receiving a mixed reaction. He's being jeered every time he touches the ball, but only by a section of the Swans faithful.

    That's better from Swansea. Jordan Ayew races up the right flank and Ashley Williams blocks his ball in. We have the first corner of the game.

    It's whipped in and Tom Carroll almost gets his head to it before it's cleared.

    I'm a big fan of managers dressing smart on match day. None of this tracksuit and trainers nonsense (I see you, TP). 

    Swansea's boss Paul Clement looks fit for a wedding in a navy blue three-piece and tie. Ronald Koeman could do a job in the groom's party, too. 

    Good to see. 

    It's still all Everton at the moment, as Tom Davies dashes up the wing before the home defence clear their lines. 

    Swansea have a free kick just outside their own box. Let's see if they can build from here.

    Now Leighton Baines tries to swing the ball in from the left to find Lukaku but the Premier League's top scorer is thwarted by the Swansea defence. 

    It's been a positive start from the visitors, who have never lost here.

    Everton have so much to play for and are a side looking up rather than down. I think the Toffees have a great chance to get a result at the Liberty Stadium.

    Everton are on top straight away. Kevin Mirallas twists and turns and the ball eventually gets on the head of Romelu Lukaku, but he can only plant it straight at the keeper for an easy save.

    There is such a lot of talent out there on the field that I feel there will be goals in this game. Swansea have struggled to score this season but Fernando Llorente is back, and of course Romelu Lukaku is a real handful for Everton. 

    There's a phenomenal atmosphere here - this is a biggie.

    Gylfi Sigurdsson has scored nine goals and created 12 assists in a struggling team. He is reliable, and a reliable, quality footballer in your side is so valuable.
