Summary

Take help from our Sunderland vs Brighton TV Channel guide to find the right places.
When Sunderland climbed out of the depths of League One and finally reached the Premier League, not many gave them a chance. Pundits and fans alike predicted them to go straight down. But what Regis Le Bris has achieved has stunned everyone. With a 1-0 victory against fellow newboys Leeds United, Sunderland hit the 40-point mark.
It is a total that pretty much guarantees Premier League survival every season. They are 12 points off the drop zone with just nine games to go. Barring a major collapse, they will be in the top flight again. However, the Black Cats could eye even more this season. Granit Xhaka noted how European football is within reach.
They are only four points away from seventh spot, which could pretty much guarantee a Conference League spot. “We need to stay humble, we know where we’ve come from. Our target was 40 points. When you achieve the first one, you want more,” he added. But they were shell-shocked by a poor FA Cup exit to Port Vale on the weekend, heading into this clash.
Brighton will also be eyeing the seventh spot in the Premier League. Fabian Hurzeler could barely hide his feelings after a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal last time out. The young manager lashed out at Arsenal’s time-wasting tactics and their inability to play football. It ended a positive two-game winning run for the Seagulls.
After a promising first season, the South Coast side failed to show much improvement this season. Hurzeler will point fingers at their injury struggles, and he might just have a point. But a late onslaught will still give them a chance to finish the season on a high and get European football.
