Heading into the game (3pm kick-off) third-bottom Sunderland are a point off safety following the last-gasp draw with Stoke City last weekend.

Relegation rivals Newcastle United are away at Aston Villa, while Norwich City host Manchester United.

Chris Young and Richard Mennear are at the Stadium of Light bringing you the best build-up, match action and post-match reaction from the crunch clash.
