Spurs go up against a team managed by a former White Hart Lane star on Saturday, as they travel to the North East to face Gus Poyet's Sunderland in the Premier League. The former Uruguayan international enjoyed a productive spell in North London between 2001 and 2004 and will be looking to get one over his former club - and fellow South American coach Mauricio Pochettino - at the Stadium of Light. The two sides have made very different starts to their respective league seasons, with the home team having drawn with West Bromwich Albion and Manchester United, only to then lose to Queens Park Rangers for a current points tally of two points from three games, while Spurs won their opening two games against West Ham United and Queens Park Rangers, but suffered a deflating 3-0 home defeat to Liverpool last time out, giving them a total of six points from three games. Spurs have also won two games out of two in the Europa League - both against AEL Limassol in the play-off round - meaning they have four wins in total this season, while Sunderland did win 3-0 at Birmingham City in the Capital One Cup. Having both lost in their previous league outings, each team will be looking to avoid two defeats in a row and Sunderland in particular will be looking for a win to get their first three points on the board. However, the Stadium of Light is a place Spurs will be expected to go and, at the very least, avoid defeat in their hunt for a Champions League spot. But what do you think will happen on Saturday? Will Spurs get back to winning ways against the Black Cats or will Sunderland get their first league win of the season under their belt?
