Toon have only lost once in their last ten encounters against their great rivals and are also unbeaten in their last five Premier League starts, they will go into the game full of confidence. Although beaten at home by Manchester City last week, Sunderland had won two away games on the trot. This put to an end a dismal run of away form between October and March, during which time they lost ten straight games, conceded 25 goals and scored only 5 in return.

Its interesting to note that in their last four games, Newcastle have scored nine times and have conceded only once. Is this really a Kevin Keegan team?
