Mark Lawrenson thinks this match will end in a 2-0 win for Sunderland.

"West Ham have been brilliant away from home, so you might think this will be a straightforward victory. But football does not work like that, which is why we love it, and why I am going for a surprise result," reckons our football expert.

Take on Lawro - and football fans from across the world - by having your say in all of this weekend's fixtures in our football predictor game.

Lee Cattermole was impressive last weekend despite the 3-0 defeat by Manchester United, and he is at his tigerish best today, already making five recoveries (yellow), three interceptions (blue), one tackle (green) and one clearance (purple).

"They have linked up well, Fletcher and Borini. But Borini, what an opportunity to put that game to bed at 3-0."

Terrific entertainment but Sunderland will be kicking themselves for conceding so late. Will that come back to haunt them?

Lee Cattermole is booked. Surely not? The midfielder who can't resist a challenge goes in late on Dimitri Payet. That's five yellows but it's a competitive rather than a dirty game.

Three minutes of added time.

Fabio Borini lines up another shot on the edge of the area...and it's just wide. One-way traffic. The Hammers are getting hammered.

In all that excitement there has been another yellow card.

Aaron Cresswell is cautioned for a lunge on Jeremain Lens.

It's 3-1 to West Ham on the yellow card count.

Huge miss by Fabio Borini. 

Not for the first time, the Hammers defence is sliced wide open by a free-flowing home move and Borini only has the keeper to beat but stubs his effort agonisingly wide from 12 yards. 

Will it prove costly?

Newcastle lead at Manchester City... and it means Sunderland are back on the bottom of the 'as it stands' table. What happened to a bit of neighbourly love?

First Sunderland booking and it's goalscorer Jeremain Lens, who is in trouble for colliding with Aaron Cresswell.

"It's very surprising after the results West Ham have had on the road. They've not started very well at all today."  

Sunderland are unrecognisable...and the home fans are loving it.

Fabio Borini tees up another chance for Steven Fletcher, whose shot is deflected behind before Adrian produces a fine save to keep out John O'Shea from the corner.

The Hammers are all over the place.

Steven Fletcher's goal looks pretty simple in its execution, but he ran from deep and was helped by a nice blocking run by Sunderland team-mate John O'Shea. It was a nice finish.

West Ham are not only being taken apart, they are also losing their discipline.

Winston Reid is booked for a cynical challenge on the impressive Steven Fletcher.

"Terrible defending by West Ham, Payet gave the ball away and Lens poached the ball, got to the edge of the box and dinked the ball over the goalkeeper. A lovely delicate finish."   

West Ham are masters of their own downfall. That goal came as a result of an error by Dimitri Payet.
