Liverpool will host Sunderland at Anfield on Wednesday, aiming to build on their recent win over West Ham. The Reds have struggled in recent weeks, but last weekend's win ended a three-match losing streak, and now they'll be looking to start a winning run, beginning with this midweek clash against Sunderland.

The Black Cats are currently above Liverpool in the Premier League standings and will be focused on maintaining their position in the top half of the table. Consistently accumulating points will be key to their hopes of finishing the season strongly.
