Sunderland Preview – Can Black Cats maul Canaries?
Sunderland bounced back from their recent 2-1 defeat away at Sheffield United with last weekend’s 1-0 win away at Stoke City and the Black Cats now return to their Stadium of Light for this Saturday’s lunchtime encounter against highly fancied promotion contenders, Norwich City.
It’s been a good start to their return to the Championship for Sunderland who have suffered just one loss in their opening five games, whist picking up wins over Bristol City and Stoke City but they’ve yet to record their first home win of the campaign.
Norwich City Preview – Can Canaries outwit new-boys?
Norwich City stumbled through their opening three games of this season’s Championship and looked out of sorts following two defeats in these three games, losing to Cardiff City and Hull City, but Dean Smith’s side have since clicked into gear by posting back to back wins.
Recent victories against Huddersfield Town and Millwall, albeit both on home soil at Carrow Road, will still give Norwich a useful lift ahead of this tricky looking trip to the north-east to take on Sunderland, while just two defeats in their last 11 away games in the Championship also gives them a chance here as well.
