Burnley Carabao Cup Preview… 28.08.19

Sunderland gain much needed win vs Portsmouth 17.08.19
Decent win for Sunderland on Tuesday night at Accrington, but most will agree today was a massive game, whilst the result is paramount, we needed to see a positive performance from the lads. 12.30pm kick-off dreadful for Portsmouth fans, it…

Ipswich Town Away 10.08.19 Match Review
