Sunderland essentially have to win every match from now until the end of the season to stand any chance of Premier League survival.
Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United will be their opponents this weekend, as David Moyes would love to show his former side they made a mistake getting rid of him too soon three years ago.?

?Jordan Pickford will be in goal. Only Tom Heaton has made more saves in the Premier League this season than the local lad, who has been a beacon of hope in an otherwise bleak season for the Black Cats.

Sunderland will be without former Manchester United defender John O’Shea for this weekend’s match, as the defender has been given time off due to his father recently passing away.
Bryan Oviedo has previous history with Manchester United, and he scored the winning goal for Everton at Old Trafford when David Moyes was the manager at Old Trafford,

Sunderland received a massive injury boost in the midweek match against Leicester as midfield general Lee Cattermole made his first appearance for the club in nearly seven months, and he looks set to retain his place this weekend.
Jack Rodwell and Seb Larsson are likely to accompany Lee Cattermole in the middle of the park.?
Forwards
Sunderland are in desperate need of a goal in the Premier League.
The Black Cats haven’t scored a single goal in their last six league matches and this weekend, they face the team with the best defensive record away from home this season.
Adnan Januzaj will be unavailable, so Moyes might plump for with Victor Anichebe to partner talisman Jermain Defoe and Fabio Borini.?
