Liverpool midfielder Joe Allen is looking forward to retuning to Swansea City tomorrow night.

Allen has admitted that he is excited at the prospect of lining up against his boyhood team.

He said: "It's a club that means so much to me and the club I still support.

"Unfortunately I missed the game at the Liberty last season so I've been really looking forward to this game for a long time.

"We understand it's going to be a tough game at the Liberty.

"They've beaten some big clubs there this season and we all know we've got to go there and give 100%.

"It's going to be a tough game to get the three points but with us challenging for those top places it's a very important game."
