Man United are travelling to the Stadium of Light with six points behind the fourth-placed Man City and with 13 games left. This game is crucial for Louis van Gaal’s team in their Champions League pursuit. On the other hand, Sunderland is fighting for relegation, and they cannot afford to lose any more games at home. United are the favourites in this match, but they still have to pay attention to some threats that Sunderland can pose to them.

The new signing Wahbi Khazri will be another player that Man United has to take care of with permanent marking. A Tunisian is a technically gifted player and can be a big threat if given a chance. He can play on both left and right flank and with excellent dribbling and passing abilities, can attract more attention to himself, leaving Defoe unmarked. Following Adam Johnson’s sacking after serious sexual allegations, this could be one of the Sam Allardyce’s plans for tomorrow game.
