Picking the Best Potential Sunderland Lineup to Face Watford on Saturday

[ad_1]

?If Sunderland are going to pull off yet another great escape, they will need to pick up a win against Watford this Saturday at Vicarage Road.

David Moyes’ men have lost three of their last four Premier League matches and look destined for relegation, but a win this weekend could potentially change everything.

Incredibly, despite being bottom of the table, Sunderland don’t have the worst defensive record in the league this season. 

Nevertheless, they need to be more difficult to beat and before the international break, they kept their first clean sheet since the end of January.

Skipper John O’Shea picked up a knock on international duty but he should be fit enough to feature this weekend.

Midfield

Sunderland have suffered a host of injuries throughout the season and it’s the midfield that appears to have suffered the most.

The Black Cats are without midfield general Lee Cattermole and winger Steven Pienaar so Moyes is likely to go with the same midfield trio that started against Burnley two weeks ago.?

Forwards

Despite enjoying another fantastic se?ason with Sunderland, Jermain Defoe is currently going through a dry spell in the Premier League.

Both Defoe and Sunderland have failed to score in their past four Premier League matches which has resulted in four consecutive games without a win.

Defoe scored for England last week and the Sunderland fans will be hoping their main man can find the net again this weekend.
