Saturday's fixture between Stoke City and Sunderland will be a matchup of two teams in the middle of the table looking to keep pace with the top teams. Stoke City and Sunderland are hoping to advance their spot in the standings this season after respectable mid-table finishes from each last season. Saturday's match will kick off at 15:00 local time in Stoke-on-Trent at the Britannia Stadium.
Sunderland comes into Saturday's game after a successful home outing last weekend while Stoke City settled for a draw on the road against Birmingham City. Sunderland overcame an early 1-0 deficit to win 2-1. Kenwyne Jones netted both of Sunderland's goals in their comeback victory over Blackburn Rovers. Stoke City meanwhile picked up one point on the road last weekend with a 0-0 draw against Birmingham City.
Sunderland is among a group of five teams sitting on six points in the Premier League, good for second in the Premier League. Stoke City is not far behind, sitting on four points. Both teams are hoping to improve their standing in the Premier League overall. Stoke City are in their second consecutive season in the Premier League after finishing mid-table last season. Sunderland finished strong enough last season to avoid relegation and is off to a good start this season. The Black Cats are hoping to remain in the Premier League for a fourth straight season by performing well this season.
Both teams will be seeking the full three points to keep pace with Tottenham and Chelsea atop the table. Though the season is young, picking up more points early in the season means less pressure in the latter stages of the season.
