Sunderland and Spurs are searching for their first premier league win this season as these stuttering sides face each other at The Stadium of Light. Join The Roar for live scores and updates from 10:15PM (AEST).
In a season where Sunderland need to get the wins rolling to ensure survival, a fixture against Tottenham could put three points on hold for the Black Cats.
Scoring only three goals in four matches wouldn’t persuade you to think that Spurs are having a convincing season so far. In fact, four games, three goals, three points leaves Tottenham winless as well.
Last season’s revelation Jermain Defoe, who has two goals to his name this season is looking to join the league of extraordinary goal scorers this season.
With players like Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld, little Defoe could have a tough time getting a sight on goal.
Last year’s breakout star Harry Kane is still yet to get on the scoresheet this season. He’d want to add to his 21 league goals last year.
A goal in the European Qualifiers could set the mark for the wonder kid to get the goals rolling this season.
Nacer Chadli is one to look out for as he will attempt to continue glimpses of form, scoring a goal in Tottenham’s 2-2 draw to Leicester in Round two.
Chadli would no doubt want to add to not only his tally but the entire Spurs team tally this season.
This is a fixture which Sunderland have not won since 2010 where they were victorious 3-1 thanks to goals from Darren Bent.
A Home match looks good for Sunderland but a tough opponent like Tottenham could tarnish that hope, and leave them searching for another week for three points.
Can the Black Cats claw away with three points? Or will Tottenham Yids live up to the day?
My Prediction – Sunderland 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur
