Sunderland 1 Newcastle 1 highlights 16/1/11

There is definitely an eagerly anticipated tyne-wear derby that takes place on Sunday with the Toon mauling their neighbours 5-1 in the corresponding league fixture this campaign and also the fact there hasn't been a 0-0 draw between the sides in the history of the premier league. Newcastle have also only failed to score in once of their last 9 games and last time out they mauled West Ham 5-0. Add in the element of the Magpies not having the most secure back line and them leaking 17 goals on the road this season and there is definitely a healthy sign that there will be a bulge of a net at least once at the Stadium of Light on Sunday.

Despite their tending to usually be goals in this fixture, usually it's Newcastle who come out on top when they meet. The black cats beat their rivals in the 2008-09 season but that was their one and only home victory over Newcastle since 1980. Also the overall results of all time between the sides sees Sunderland lagging behind as in 142 clashes between the sides, Newcastle have won 56, Sunderland 44 wins and 46 have been draws. The match takes place at Sunderland's stadium of light stadium and kicks off at 12pm.
