Sunderland prepare to entertain Liverpool at Stadium Of Light at tea-time on Saturday, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 75 games played, The Black Cats have recorded 31 wins, and Liverpool have come away with 30 victories.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stadium Of Light was less than a year ago, in August 2007, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Premier League match.

Recent respective form guides
Sunderland's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. The The Black Cats's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.
Liverpool's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Reds, and 5 goals against.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the The Black Cats at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Reds come away with an easy victory. Away win
