Week 20 of the English Premier League sees Liverpool dropping two points at Sunderland, Man Utd win six on the trot, and 10-man Man City beat Burnley.
Chelsea has the chance to move eight points clear in the Premier League if they can beat Spurs on Wednesday after Liverpool could only manage a draw at the Stadium of Light.
Jurgen Klopp’s side came into their clash with Sunderland on the back of four league wins on the spin, with Sunderland having lost four of five. But it was a spirited performance from David Moyes’s side.
Daniel Sturridge, who was making a rare league start, headed Liverpool ahead in the 19th minute – his fourth goal in successive games against the Black Cats. But some dodgy defending from Ragnar Klavan led to Jermaine Defoe converting from the spot after the Estonian defender had blocked the path of the onrushing Didier Ndong.
