We are aback to English Premier League matches and Saturday today, Manchester United with 74 points sitting on top of the points table takes on Sunderland sitting at 15th place with 31 points at Stadium of Light.
Although Sunderland stand no chance against the Red Devils, Sunderland hope Sir Alex Ferguson will field a 'weakened' side for a fixture scheduled only 48 hours before United's FA Cup quarter-final replay against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Well that is something only time will tell or Sir Alex himself. But we also know that The Black Cats are having a terrible time - facing up to the loss of their skipper and star striker and a home game against Manchester United all in the space of a few days and such expectations seem 'justified.'
As for the fact sheet, Sunderland have won just one of their previous 23 Premier League games against Manchester United, losing 17. The Black Cats have collected only three points (D3 L4) in their last seven Premier League matches.
Interestingly, Manchester United are Sunderland’s least favourite opponents in the Premier League, with the Black Cats’ win percentage (4.4%) their lowest against any side in the competition.
Manchester United have won 47 of a possible 51 points in their last 17 Premier League games (W15 D2) and are hot favourites for the match Saturday afternoon.
