Two clubs in opposite halves of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Liverpool and Sunderland. The first-division clash scheduled for 10 a.m. ET will be held at Anfield Stadium in Liverpool and can be live streamed here free.
What They're Saying
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via BBC): "No matter who you are, the time comes when the wheels are out and ready to land. Steven [Gerrard's] wheels aren't out yet. At this stage of his career, it is about the level of the game and he is a very important player for us. He is not 24 any more. You have to [manage workloads] with players at this part of their career, so it is about mapping out the rest of the season for him."
Sunderland manager Gus Poyet (via Sunderland's official website): "We need to be realistic and we cannot always be at the same level as the top teams."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Liverpool's Adam Lallana has seen a rise in form in recent weeks. In eight league appearances, the 26-year-old has two goals and an average of 1.1 take-ons.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Mignolet; Moreno, Toure, Skrtel, Johnson; Henderson, Leiva; Sterling, Allen, Lallana; Lambert
Sunderland's Projected Lineup (4-1-4-1): Pantilimon; Reveillere, Brown, O'Shea, Vergini; Cattermole; Buckley, Rodwell, Larsson, Wickham; Fletcher
