Crystal Palace v Sunderland, 20:00
There is one point between Palace and Sunderland in the Premier League table, representing a couple of spots right now, but neither team is in a strong position right now and for Sunderland that had translated into a spot in the relegation zone early in the season. Since beating Stoke, Gus Poyet has seen his men concede ten goals in two game which won’t have pleased him, especially when you consider that the home team seems to have found some form, and more importantly a degree of the old backbone that made them so formidable under Tony Pulis. Sunderland are yet to win on the road but if it’s ever going to happen this is a good chance, and might end up being a close-run game.
Palace manager Neil Warnock could have Julian Speroni, Scott Dann and James McArthur fit and back for this game, but Stuart O’Keefe remains unavailable with a foot problem. For Sunderland there is a possibility Steven Fletcher will play today but the list of wounded is long, and includes Billy Jones, Ricky Alvarez, Sebastian Coates and Emanuele Giaccherini, which won’t help Gus Poyet’s chances.
