LIVERPOOL v SUNDERLAND: BIG MATCH STATS AND FACTS

Luis Suarez has scored seven goals in six Barclays Premier League appearances against Sunderland.

Sunderland have scored just five goals in 12 Premier League visits to Anfield.

The Black Cats have won just three of the 25 Premier League games against Liverpool, losing 14 - all three of these wins have come at home.

Liverpool have won 10 and lost none of their last 11 Premier League games at Anfield.

Daniel Sturridge has scored 10 goals in 10 Premier League appearances at Anfield this season, including six in his last four there.

Liverpool have only failed to score in one of their last 15 Premier League games at Anfield (0-1 v Southampton in September), averaging 2.9 goals per game in this period.

Luis Suarez needs two goals to become the first Liverpool player to score 30 league goals in a single season since Ian Rush in 1986-87.

Suarez has scored or assisted 39 goals this season, only three players (Alan Shearer, Andy Cole & Thierry Henry) have been involved in more goals in a single campaign.

In 11 Premier League games in 2014, Liverpool have scored an average of 3.45 goals per game. Over a full season that would result in 131 goals.

Liverpool games have seen an average of four goals per game (for and against combined) this season, the first time this rate has been seen by any top-flight side since the 1963-64 season.
