Ghana’s lead striker Asamoah Gyan and shot-stopper Richard Kingson will go head-to-head in a game with implications for the reputations of both players.
\nBlackpool and Sunderland meet in the English premier league and it pits two players who have been central for the Black Stars in recent years against each other.
\nKingson has established a reputation as a good goalkeeper having finally got the chance to play regular football at Blackpool. But it was his error in the game against West Brom that gifted the home side their second goal in that game.
\nGyan meanwhile is flying high at Sunderland. His goal against Newcastle was his seventh of the season but with Darren Bent having departed, Gyan, who arrived for big money, will be under pressure beginning this weekend to prove he is worth every penny of the 13.5 million pounds that the club paid for him.
