Craig Shakesphere continue to impress as Leicester City picked up four straight Premier League win and fifth in all competitions. They brushed off a lacklustre Stoke City by 2-0, aided by goals from Wilfred Ndidi and Jamie Vardy. Meanwhile, Demarai Gray was the pick of the players, who constantly outfoxed the Stoke defense with his intelligent runs.
Saturday’s win pushed the Foxes up to 13th in the standings, but they are not completely safe from relegation dur to the 6-point gap with the bottom three teams.
For Sunderland, this will be the end of an era in the Premier League. The likes of Paolo di Canio, Gus Poyet, Dick Advocaat and Sam Allardyce have saved them from relegation from similar positions. But this team under David Moyes look set to go down.
After the 1-0 loss to Watford at the Vicarage Road, Sunderland remain at the foot of the table with a 9-point distance to safety. They are without a win in the last five, failing to find the back of the net in each of them. Their last league win was against Crystal Palce on February, the only win in the last 13 Premier League games.

Leicester vs Sunderland: Prediction
The confidence and mentality of these two teams going into this match are totally opposite. Leicester City are hungry for more points and they look close to the team that win the Premier League last season. Meanwhile, Sunderland are a team low on confidence and David Moyes start running out of ideas. This could be another easy win for Leicester City.
