Still licking their wounds from a comprehensive defeat away to Leicester City on Tuesday night, Liverpool welcome relegation candidates Sunderland to Anfield in an intriguing Premier League matchup.
The last time the two sides met in the league was Jurgen Klopp's introduction to an English top-flight institution in Sam Allardyce, resulting in a pitch-side confrontation that saw the Black Cats manager label Klopp a "soft German" after the game, as reported by Sky Sports, though both have since laughed off the incident.
That game finished as a 1-0 victory to the Reds, with Christian Benteke scoring the winner just after half-time, but since then Allardyce's squad has changed significantly.
