One more match where both teams will be holding their breath for Peru. Sunderland is currently in 10th place with 51 points, while Chelsea is in 8th place with 52 points. However, since they have secured a spot in the Conference League for next season, both teams still have a chance to climb up to 7th place and play in the Europa League, as 7th place Brighton with 53 points will host Manchester United at home.
Even in the case of a loss for Brighton, these two teams could switch places and Sunderland could play in the Conference League next season, while Chelsea would be left behind. It is a great opportunity for Sunderland to enter Europe, which they would not want to miss out on - a perfect balance for both teams to fight regardless of the outcomes from other stadiums.
According to statistics, both teams are at the top in terms of fouls, with Chelsea leading in the number of red cards drawn this season with a total of 15 in league matches alone. The referee for this match is Chris Kavanagh, a respectable referee who does not hand out cards easily, but once needed, he does not hold back. So far this season, he has shown 6+ cards in 15 matches, including 5 red cards.
