Match Preview: Saturday,16 March 2013, One of the important match Swansea V Arsenal of Barclays Premier League HD Quality Live Swansea V Arsenal streaming is available here.Swansea V Arsenal Live Stream online Barclays Premier League Video Free The match will take plcae at Liberty Stadium on 3/16/13 Preview Pictures and Wallpapers its mean all things are available in my blog please see and check here for latest things.Wenger must have reflected on the win against Bayern with both pride and huge frustration. They proved how good they can be on their day, but have too often been victims of their own downfall, as was the case in their last league outing in the north London derby defeat.This has to be the time to put together a run of victories and gain some momentum, and put some pressure on the teams above and around them. They have to cut out the errors and do all they can to stay in touch.That's why the trip to the Liberty Stadium is so important to keep that belief alive. If they fail to win, just as they did there last season and at the Emirates earlier in this campaign, then the task could suddenly be a big one at the end of the weekend. Their margin for error is decreasing all the time. In the aftermath of the midweek events in Munich, Arsene Wenger described this match as "massive" for Arsenal. Quite simply that is because they have 10 games left to save their season.
They begin the weekend five points behind the top four, where the Frenchman has always led the Gunners in his 16 previous seasons at the club. To maintain that record, they will need all the spirit and togetherness of the performance in Germany.
The key could well be consistency, something that has often eluded them this season and irritated players, manager and supporters alike.
Team News:
As Arsenal face up to an eighth successive season without a trophy, they'll face a Swansea team still on a high after their first major honour.
Michael Laudrup's contract extension has further buoyed the atmosphere, and Swansea will attempt to win four successive top-flight home matches for the first time since John Toshack's side 31 years ago.
They've not only won more admirers this season but more points too, having already hit the 40-point target - just seven short of last season's entire total.
Swansea midfielder Leon Britton has made good progress in his recovery from a hip injury and could be fit.
Luke Moore should shake off a calf problem but Chico Flores (ankle) and Kemy Agustien (thigh) again miss out.
Arsenal full-back Kieran Gibbs will be rested for this game, having just returned from a thigh injury.
Nacho Monreal is available after being cup-tied against Bayern, while Thomas Vermaelen and goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny could also return.
Head-to-head
Swansea beat Arsenal 3-2 in this fixture last season, and also won 2-0 at the Emirates in December.
But Arsenal beat the Swans in the FA Cup in January, winning 1-0 in the replay after the sides had drawn 2-2 at the Liberty Stadium.
In the three matches between these two teams this season, six of the seven goals have been scored in the last nine minutes.
Swansea
Swansea are looking for a fourth consecutive home win. They haven't lost at the Liberty Stadium since Norwich beat them 4-3 on 8 December. They last won four consecutive top-flight league home matches between December 1981 and March 1982 in the old Division One.
Their home record is exactly the same as this stage last season (W6, D6, L2). They have scored eight fewer goals but conceded nine fewer.
Swansea have led at half-time on five occasions this season - and have converted all five into victories.
Spanish players have scored 20 goals for Swansea in the Premier League this season.
One of those Spaniards, Michu, has scored three goals in three matches against Arsenal in all competitions this season.
Arsenal
Arsenal have won just one of their last four away games in the league. But they have conceded just 13 away goals in the top flight this season, the equal-fewest alongside Manchester City.
The Gunners are unbeaten in their last 13 Premier League matches that have followed a Champions League fixture since a 2-1 defeat at Tottenham in October 2011.
Arsenal have won just three times in their 13 matches against top-half clubs this season.
Theo Walcott turns 24 on the day of the game.
Lukas Podolski has been substituted in 19 of his 21 league starts this season, more than any other Arsenal player.
