Sunderland News & Analysis

Sunderland lost two of their last three games in the Premier League. In their last match Regis Le Bris’ boys faced Arsenal at the Emirates, but far from surprising suffered a 0-3 defeat against the current leader in the standings.

Now Le Bris could make a change or two for the next game. Players like Isidor, Geertruida, Mundle and Rigg could be in contention to start against the champion.

The Black Cats’ striker Brian Brobbey could sit on the bench in the next match. The Dutch forward had a poor performance against Arsenal.

Liverpool News & Analysis

Liverpool hosted Manchester City in their last game, but conceded a 1-2 defeat against the Cityzens. Dominik Szoboszlai opened the score for the Reds with a beautiful free-kick, but City managed to turn the match around. Meanwhile Liverpool finished the game with 10 men as Szoboszlai was sent off in the last few seconds. He won’t play against Sunderland.

Curtis Jones could replace Dominik Szoboszlai in Liverpool’s line-up at the Stadium of Light. The manager Arne Slot has some squad problems as he has some important players that are missing. Alexander Isak is still recovering from a broken foot while Jeremie Frimpong, Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley are also out of action.

One of Slot’s concerns is the poor form of Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian super star is not on the same level as he was the previous season. There are now rumours that Salah could leave the club at the end of the season.
