Swansea v Middlesbrough

Swansea host Championship flyers Middlesbrough at the Liberty in their first ever League Cup quarter final...

This will be Middlesbrough's 12th away League Cup draw in a row. They have won seven and lost four of the previous 11.

 

Danny Graham has scored four goals in his last five League Cup appearances.

 

The last time these two sides met was in the 2010-11 Championship and Swansea came back from 1-3 down with half an hour to play to win 4-3.

 

There has been a goal scored in the 88th minute or later in nine of the last 10 League Cup matches involving Swansea.

 

The last time Swansea lost at home in the League Cup was in August 2009 against Scunthorpe when they had three players sent off.

 

This is the first time Swansea have ever made the quarter-final of the League Cup.

 

Boro have reached the League Cup semi-finals five times; the first two they were eliminated, the next two they went on to lose in the final and the last occasion they went on  to win the trophy.
