Bottom club Sunderland entertain West Ham at the Stadium of Light as they look to kickstart their Premier League campaign.
Sunderland must not allow West Ham to settle if they are to end their winless start to the Premier League campaign, says striker Jermain Defoe.
Dick Advocaat's side are bottom of the table after the opening seven matches of the 2015-16 season, with only two points to their name.
It is another poor start to a season for Sunderland – who have not won in their previous 10 league matches – and Defoe knows it is imperative they get three points under their belt to ensure they are not cut adrift.
