Sockets vs HttpListener

I am working on creating a proxy server that listens on a specific port for incoming connections. These are usually Http (GET / POST) requests. You cannot select HttpListener or Sockets. I will modify the HttpRequests in the proxy server and then pass it to the final destination.

When you prefer HttpListener over sockets. What are the benefits of each?
