Chelsea were lucky to claim the points on Saturday against Hull in their season opener at Stamford Bridge. Ancelotti's Blues now travel to face Sunderland on Tuesday evening hoping for a more comfortable performance rather than relying on injury time flukes.

For their part Sunderland got off to a good start at the Reebok. A goal from new signing Darren Bent starts bringing some justification for his price tag and claimed all 3 points for the Black Cats. You can catch the full 90 minutes of this game live and online through our partner network.

Sunderland did not feature at the weekend so manager Ricky Sbragia leads a relatively fresh team to Anfield. A string of results has given the Black Cats potential to break into the top half of the English Premier League table something unheard of in recent years.

A number of players continue to be sidelined for Liverpool. Add to this their hectic schedule and the remainder are starting to look a little fatigued. Torres continues to concern manager Benitez after picking up an ankle injury in their Champions League game. The Reds main issue seems to be scoring goals and this is something they need to overcome asap if they are to even challenge Chelsea in the league table let alone Manchester United.

Arsenal v Sunderland Highlights Video

Arsenal 0 - 0 Sunderland

Arsene Wenger’s side entertained an improving Sunderland side at the Emirates. New signing Andrey Arshavin made the starting line up whilst Ricky Sbragia once again looked to in-form Kenwyne Jones to fire on all cylinders.

It was the Russian who made the first impression producing a fine save from Marton Fulop from 20 yards. Anton Ferdinand nearly topped it a couple of minutes later producing an equally good stop from Manuel Almunia. The keepers were on top in a tetchy first half during which both Keiran Richardson and Samir Nasri were booked.

Arshavin was replaced by Carlos Vela after an hour but he couldn’t assist the Gunners to break down Sunderland’s resolute defending. The Black Cats settled back to defend what they had and a Robin van Persie free-kick aside, only Vela’s mis-hit and hurried efforts from Gallas and van Persie in injury time even partly troubled Fulop in the Sunderland goal.

The boos that greeted the final whistle and Arsenal’s third successive league draw told the story. Sunderland fans head back up to the North East happy but Arsenal remain two wins behind fourth-placed Aston Villa and Wenger‘s Boys must find the winning way again if Champions League football is to be theirs next season.

Man Utd vs Sunderland Highlights Video

Man Utd 1 - 0 Sunderland
90' Nemanja Vidic Goal 1 - 0

Paul Scholes has been ruled out of Manchester United's Premier League encounter with Sunderland at Old Trafford.

The veteran midfielder made his comeback from a knee injury in Wednesday's Carling Cup win over Blackburn. Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed Scholes has suffered no reaction but he has decided to leave him on the sidelines.

Darren Fletcher (hamstring) is a doubt but should make it, allowing Ferguson to choose from a virtually full-strength squad.

Sir Alex Ferguson is delighted Carlos Tevez is frustrated at not being a regular member of his Manchester United starting line-up - the Scot does not want anyone who is happy to sit in the stand.

Cesc Fabregas cane to Arsenal's rescue with an injury-time equaliser to deny Sunderland victory after a 1-1 draw at the Stadium of Light.

The Gunners were within seconds of suffering successive Premier League defeats for the first time since March last year, after substitute Grant Leadbitter smashed home an 86th-minute goal.

But Fabregas, a week after his side had lost at home to promoted Hull, ensured there was no repeat when he headed Robin van Persie's corner home deep into added-time.
