Jozy Altidore scored his first goal in 30 appearances in all competitions for Sunderland in their League Cup defeat against Stoke in midweek.

Swansea have kept only three clean sheets in their last 18 Premier League games.
They have earned just eight corners in five league games this season.
Gylfi Sigurdsson has assisted four Premier League goals this season; he has never recorded more than four in a single campaign in Britain.
