Liverpool vs Sunderland: Preview
Liverpool shocked many when they parted ways with former boss Arne Slot earlier this summer.
The Dutchman earned just two seasons at Anfield, with his second a little less unforgiving than his debut campaign, with the Reds finishing 5th.
Iraola is now tasked with steering the ship, yet Liverpool have yet to really make waves in the summer market at all.
Only Jeremy Jacquet has arrived, and we are expecting to see plenty of England star Rio Ngumoha a lot more this season.
Sunderland will play European football in 2026/27, after Regis Le Bris led the Black Cats to a 7th-placed finish in the Premier League.
A terrific return considering the Tyneside side were only promoted to the top flight a year before.
Just how they cope with the demands of Europa League football remains to be seen, with fellow Premier League club Aston Villa winning the competition last year.
After a very busy summer window last year, only Thomas Meunier has arrived at the Stadium of Light so far this off-season.
FourFourTwo’s prediction
Liverpool 1-0 Sunderland
The US heat may play a big part in this one and we think it’ll be tight, with Liverpool to edge it.
