Prediction

Sunderland are not far off already doing enough to stay up this season — which is no mean feat as we head into February — and they should get another important victory over struggling Burnley to boost their ambitions further.

Regis Le Bris' side remain unbeaten in the league at home this season — another superb achievement — and the Clarets do not look good enough to stop them on Monday.

Arsenal, Manchester City, Newcastle and Aston Villa are among the top-half clubs who have found it tough going on Wearside and Scott Parker’s team, who have won just three league games overall this season, and only one on the road, look set to be Sunderland’s next victims.
