Sunderland travel to Anfield this weekend for their game against Liverpool.
Roy Keane`s men will be hoping to capitalise Liverpool`s shaky form of late.
The Blackcats are yet to win away from home this season but are on the back of three successive home victories.
Liverpool are without Alvaro Arbeloa Andriy Voronin and Daniel Agger.
However Javier Mascherano is likely to be back after serving his recent suspension.
The Spanish International striker is a class act and I hope he has an off game.
New signing Andy Reid won`t be making his debut due to the knee injury he is recovering from.
Ross Wallace, Danny Higginbotham, Grant Leadbitter and Dwight Yorke are out injured.
We are also without Dickson Etuhu who is at the African Cup of Nations.
Kierna Richarson could feature after overcoming a hamstring injury.
Jones has been in great form lately if we are going to have any chance against Liverpool he will have to be at his best.
In our last six league games away to Liverpool we have Won 0, Draw 4 and Lost 2
