Sunderland v Man Utd Barclays Premier League Venue: Stadium of Light Date: Sunday, 2 May 2010 Kick-off: 1600 BST (台湾时间 5/2 23:00) 直播频道 广东体育、上海体育、欧洲足球、ESPN(亚洲)、香港NOW宽频632、泰星101、超级体育3 TEAM NEWS Manchester United welcomed back forward Wayne Rooney and defender Rio Ferdinand to training on Friday with both hopeful of returning to the starting XI. Gary Neville, who has signed a new one-year contract at Old Trafford, is touch and go with a calf problem. Sunderland are without the suspended Alan Hutton, meaning Phil Bardsley could start against his old club. Lee Cattermole and John Mensah are hoping to return from injury, but George McCartney and Andy Reid are out. Sunderland (from) Gordon, Carson, Bardsley, Turner, Mensah, Ferdinand, Kilgallon, Da Silva, Cana, Cattermole, Zenden, Richardson, Malbranque, Henderson, Campbell, Bent, Jones, Benjani, Meyler, Liddle. Suspended: Hutton (one match) Doubtful: Cattermole (calf), Mensah (knee) Injured: McCartney & Reid (both hamstring) Manchester United (from): Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Foster Neville, O'Shea, Rafael, De Laet, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evans, Evra Carrick, Hargreaves, Scholes, Fletcher, Park, Gibson, Obertan, Valencia, Giggs, Nani Berbatov, Rooney, Macheda, Diouf Doubtful: Ferdinand & Rooney (both groin), Neville (calf) Injured: Anderson (knee), Owen (hamstring) MATCH PREVIEW - Steve Bruce was Sir Alex Ferguson's first Premier League-winning captain, but on Saturday the former pupil will be hoping to outwit the master and end his former club's pursuit of a record 19th league title. - United head to Sunderland knowing anything less than three points will surely call time on their pursuit of Chelsea, who are at Liverpool earlier in the day. - Ferguson will be demanding a better performance than his side managed in the reverse fixture, when the Black Cats came within seconds of victory at Old Trafford only to be denied by Anton Ferdinand's late own goal. - Only Chelsea and Aston Villa have come away from the Stadium of Light with maximum points this season, and in the in-form Darren Bent, Sunderland boast a striker with his eye on the Premier League golden boot and out to prove his World Cup credentials. - But United's record on Wearside is strong - their last defeat came in the League Cup nearly 10 years ago, while they have won 12 and lost just one of their 17 Premier League meetings. MATCH FACTS Head-to-head ‧ Sunderland's last league win over Manchester United came in March 1997. Since then Sir Alex Ferguson's side have won 11 and drawn four of their last 15 league meetings. ‧ United have won five and lost none of their last seven trips to Wearside. ‧ Ferguson has won 10 and drawn three of the 13 meetings with former skipper Steve Bruce as opposing coach. Sunderland ‧ The Black Cats kept their first clean sheet in eight games last time out. ‧ But they have lost only two of their last 10 games, winning five of those matches. ‧ Steve Bruce's side have lost just one of their last 17 Premier League matches at the Stadium of Light. Man Utd ‧ It is six years since the club last won their final four matches of the season. In 2002-03 they beat Blackburn, Tottenham, Charlton and Everton on their way to the title. ‧ United have the best defensive record in the division, conceding 28 goals in 36 matches. They have kept four clean sheets in a row away from home in the top flight. ‧ Wayne Rooney has scored 148 club goals, while Paul Scholes needs one more to register 150 for Manchester United.

Sunderland scorers: Bent 7, Jones 58 M.E.N Prediction: Sunderland 1-2 United - United's extra motivation and quality should see them through Key opponent: Darren Bent - 25 goals this season says it all skysports.com prediction: Sunderland 1-2 Man Utd One to watch: Nani Lawro's predictions Sunderland 0-2 Man Utd Sunderland manager Steve Bruce could effectively kill off his old boss Sir Alex Ferguson's title hopes here. There is no pressure on Sunderland, they could have striker Kenwyne Jones back and in Darren Bent, they have got someone in outstanding form, so it should be a really open game - but United will win. They won't be worried about how they play, all that matters is the result. I've always felt United will win their last three games, so the title will come down to whether Chelsea can do the same? http://tinyurl.com/2cy3r6d http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/8651355.stm http://www.skysports.com/football/match_preview/0,19764,11065_3269417,00.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/8651329.stm -- ★ ╔╦═╮╔╮ ╭╔╮ ╭╔╦═╮ ╔╮╔╮╭╦═╮╔╮═╮ ☆ ☆ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║╠╣ ║╠╣ ║ ╠╣╠╣╠╬═╣╠╣ ║ ★ ★ ╰╝╰╯╰╝═╯╰╝═╯╚╯═╯ ╰╰╯╯╰╝ ╰╰╝ ╰ ☆ ☆ SCORING MACHINE︰ Ruud van Nistelrooy ★ ╔╮═╮╭╦╦╮╭╦═╮╭╦╦╮╔╦═╮╔╮ ╔╦═╮╭╦═╭═╦╮╮ ╔╮ ╠╣ ║ ╠╣ ╚╩╦╮ ╠╣ ╠╬╣ ╠╣ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║ ╠╣╚═╬╣ ╰╝ ╰╰╩╩╯╰═╩╝ ╚╝ ╚╩═╯╰╩═╯╰╝╰╯╰╩═╯═╩╯╰═╩╝ --
