Dick Advocaat targets victory over Leicester City

Dick Advocaat says that Sunderland are only focused on claiming three points from their Premier League match against Leicester City.

Sunderland manager Dick Advocaat has said that his side are desperate to claim three points from their match against Leicester City this weekend.

The Black Cats have seen their chances of Premier League survival boosted by two successive victories that have lifted them up to 16th in the table and two points clear of the relegation zone.

They are just one point below the Foxes, who have won six of their last seven games, and Advocaat is aware of how important the match is for his team.

"It's not only the final home game but a very crucial game against Leicester," he told the club's official website. "Hopefully, not only the players, but our fans really realise how important this game is for everybody.

"They have to make a lot of noise because we really need it. Leicester are a very difficult team to beat and in that game we have to give more than 100% to get the result. There's only one result that we need and that's the three points."

Following Sunderland's meeting with Leicester, they will finish the season with trips to Arsenal and Chelsea.
