West Ham vs Sunderland - The Predictions

Having got a well deserved point away to Everton last week hopefully the tide has turned for West Ham. However one point from the last seven games hints at some fundamental problems in the West Ham side. Perhaps the only constant positive in West Ham's recent performances has been the form of Scott Parker.

There is no doubt that Parker will be missed today. Conversely Sunderland's last seven games has seen just one defeat- of the two sides they are definitely the team in form.

In West Ham's favour is the fact that Sunderland have not won away from home since the opening game of the season.


Lawro thinks that West Ham can build on last week's performance and overcome a Sunderland side who's Premiership survival is now secure.
