Manchester City Vs Sunderland (3 - 2) On 1st January 2015 by keandre: 12:22pm On Dec 31, 2014
Match Preview


Gus Poyet has warned Sunderland to be wary of a
Manchester City backlash when the sides meet in
the Barclays Premier League.
The champions had the opportunity to close the gap
on the leaders Chelsea to one point heading into
the new year when they hosted Burnley on Sunday,
after Jose Mourinho's men had drawn 1-1 at
Southampton in an earlier kick-off. However,
Manuel Pellegrini's men surprisingly surrendered
a two-goal lead to draw 2-2, meaning Chelsea
remain three points clear at the summit.
The Sunderland head coach believes the setback
could stir City and is well aware that his team will
need to play to their maximum potential to leave
the Etihad Stadium with three points.
"Now they [City] have drawn and it's a little bit of
a wake-up call, so I don't know, we will see,"
Poyet said. "We know Manchester City, we know
how good they are, we know the quality they have
got. We need to make sure that we are good on the
day."
Poyet remains without full-backs Anthony
Reveillere (calf) and Patrick van Aanholt
(shoulder), while midfielder Liam Bridcutt is on
the sidelines after suffering a concussion in
Sunderland's 0-0 draw at Aston Villa on Sunday.
Midfielder Sebastian Larsson is expected to shake
off an ankle complaint in time to feature.
City may have slipped up against Burnley, but
before then had clocked up seven straight league
victories. One of those successes came against
Sunderland on 3 December, with Poyet admitting
his team could not cope with the quality of Sergio
Aguero, who scored twice in a 4-1 away win.
Poyet will not have that problem to contemplate
this time, though, as the Argentina striker is
sidelined with a knee injury. Captain Vincent
Kompany (hamstring), striker Edin Dzeko (calf)
and centre-back Matija Nastasic (muscular
injury) are also out for City, while midfielder
Fernando is suspended having clocked up five
yellow cards.
Pellegrini has enjoyed a 2014 that brought a
Premier League and League Cup double last season
and is hoping to start 2015 in the right fashion
against a Sunderland side they beat in the League
Cup final.
"In general it [2014] has been successful," he
said. "We have the next five months now to
continue to improve the way we play.
"I hope we start the new year winning three points.
Sunderland are a good team with a good manager.
They have strong players."
