Sunderland face Burnley in the Premier League on Monday night as the Black Cats look to get back to winning ways.
Régis Le Bris’ team had a good first half of the season in the Premier League but has stuttered somewhat of late.
They have only won their last six games, but are the only team to have yet to lose a Premier League home game this season, winning six and drawing five of their 11 games at the Stadium of Light. The only promoted team to have a longer home unbeaten run in a Premier League season is Birmingham City in 2009–10 (15).
Burnley, meanwhile, are 11 points behind and in desperate need of a win.
Burnley remain winless in their last 14 Premier League matches (D5, L9); In their elite history, it was only between February 1889 and February 1890 that the Clarets had a longer winless streak (19).
Here’s how they line up.
