Sunderland Preview – Can Black Cats rekindle form?
3rd placed Sunderland find themselves nine points adrift of 2nd placed Peterborough United who are on the verge of automatic promotion while Tuesday’s hosts have failed to win any of their last six matches overall which has cost them a promotion spot.
Three draws and three defeats is not the sort of form you want to take into the play-offs so Sunderland will be eager to set the record straight and get back to winning ways against play-off rivals, Blackpool, at the Stadium of Light.
Form at home though has at least been solid for Lee Johnson’s side as they’ve lost just one of their last 10 matches on home soil, winning six of these while also scoring 2 goals or more in six of these 10 games as well.
Blackpool Preview – Can Seasiders bounce back?
Blackpool have also stumbled of late in League One as the visitors have lost their last two matches on the trot following defeats against Rochdale and Shrewsbury Town, both of who occupy places in the bottom half of the third tier.
Blackpool had previously put together an impressive 16-match unbeaten sequence which had lifted The Seasiders up into the top six of the division but these two recent defeats now have the visitors nervously looking over their shoulders.
Blackpool have also failed to score in seven of their 21 away matches to date.
