Sunderland 2 Chelsea 4 match highlights 1/2/11

Sunderland and Chelsea are both in the pack for the race of making sure they are part of European competition next season. After Chelsea's huge derailing in the title race and getting back on their feet as of late, their main priority must be to make the champions league next season at least. If they don't manage that it will be a disaster of a season for them. As for Sunderland, they will be hoping they can keep up their proud form and land a spot in the Europa league next season.

The two clubs are very evenly matches this season and whereas the blues are 4 points ahead, Sunderland have lost one less match than the champions thus far. Chelsea of course will be looking to gain revenge for their humiliating 3-0 defeat to Sunderland earlier in the season and will expect at least a draw when they travel to the Stadium Of Light.

Sunderland's defence in their last few games has been relatively water tight whilst Chelsea's last few outings have seen them scoring for fun. Something should give in the contest in the North East on Tuesday night. The wearsiders will also have to keep their discipline in check as they have got 4 red cards already this season and won't want to have to face a team who are hard enough to play with 11 men. You can watch the live football match when it kicks off at 7:45pm and takes place at the Stadium Of Light.
