Matchday 17 ~ Sunderland vs Aston Villa - Page 2

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 03:35 AM

YOUNG will be making his 50th Premier League appearance (Watford and Aston Villa).

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 03:37 AM

Thomas SORENSEN will be facing a former club. The 31 year old Denmark international goalkeeper made 197 appearances (171 in the league) for Sunderland between August 1998 and his 2.25m move to Villa Park in August 2003.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 03:37 AM

Villa are hunting back-to-back victories at the Stadium of Light, having won this corresponding fixture in 2005 on their way to completing the double over Sunderland.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 03:37 AM

The 1-3 victory on 19 November 2005 in which Kevin Phillips scored against his former club was the Villans' first Premier League maximum on Wearside.

Sunderland manager Roy Keane will be without Irish midfielder Liam Miller for Saturday's Barclays Premier League match at home to Aston Villa.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Miller was sent off in last weekend's 2-0 defeat at Chelsea and must serve a three-match ban.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Kieran Richardson has returned to training after a back injury but is still a number of weeks away from a first-team return, as is Nyron Nosworthy (hamstring) and Carlos Edwards (broken leg).

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Keane must decide whether to stick with Darren Ward in goal or bring back summer signing Craig Gordon, who has been out of the team for the last two matches.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

ruled out

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Aston Villa midfielder Stiliyan Petrov is ruled out of the match at the Stadium of Light.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

The Bulgarian midfielder has not recovered sufficiently from the hamstring injury which sidelined him for the 2-0 home reversal by Portsmouth last weekend.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Villa manager Martin O'Neill has no fresh injury worries as the smallest squad in the top flight prepares for the demanding festive programme.

Freddy Adu · 12-15-2007, 04:58 AM

Villa will be searching for a fourth successive away win to get their European challenge back on track after home reversals against Arsenal and Pompey.

I expected Villa to win but its great that they are stalling now

Brasil · 12-15-2007, 06:17 PM

I wanted Sunderland to take the points but it's still good Villa stays below Manchester.

Freddy Adu · 12-16-2007, 03:43 AM

Sunderland 1-1 Aston Villa

Freddy Adu · 12-16-2007, 03:43 AM

A fine second-half free-kick from Shaun Maloney denied Sunderland a much-needed win at the Stadium of Light.
