What is at stake in Sunderland vs. Liverpool?

Sunderland may not be in the European places as they were earlier in the campaign, but it is still impressive that they remain in the top half during their first season back in the top flight.

Additionally, the Black Cats are ninth with 36 points to their name so far, and another victory in midweek could put Le Bris's side level with sixth-placed Liverpool.

As for the Reds, they have failed in their attempt to retain the title, and their attention will solely be on qualifying for the Champions League over their final 13 games.

However, Slot's men have only won one of their last seven Premier League matches, drawing four and losing two after their disappointing defeat against Man City at Anfield.

Given that Manchester United have improved under Michael Carrick and Chelsea have made progress under Liam Rosenior, the Merseysiders will see this match as a must-win, and unless they can return to winning ways, they could find themselves falling away from the top four.
