Liverpool’s home game with Sunderland has been rescheduled for Wednesday 26th March at 8pm.

The Reds had been set to face Gus Poyet’s men on Monday 10th March but the Black Cats' progression in the FA Cup meant the fixture had to be postponed.

Brendan Rodgers’ men will now face a testing week in which the clash with Sunderland will sit in between a meeting with relegation-threatened Cardiff City and a home game with Champions League-chasing Tottenham.

Liverpool triumphed 3-1 when the two sides met at the Stadium of Light in September with a goal from Daniel Sturridge and two from Luis Suarez.

Sunderland had enjoyed a run of four games without defeat but have lost their last two Premier League games.
