Sunderland's Lee Cattermole says that the pressure is on Manchester City ahead of their clash.

Sunderland captain Lee Cattermole has said that the pressure is on Manchester City ahead of their clash at the Etihad Stadium this afternoon.

The Citizens, who trail league leaders Manchester United in the race for the title, are undefeated at home in the current campaign. However, Cattermole insists that the weight of expectation at Eastlands could work in Sunderland's favour.

"It's a big game," he told the Sunderland Echo. "But it's the sort of game you can go and enjoy.

"Manchester City are fighting for the title, and there is going to be a lot of pressure on them to get a result.

"We have to go there and be committed like we have been all season. If we do that we can get back to being a team that is hard to beat."

The Black Cats beat Manchester City at the Stadium of Light earlier this season.
