Sunderland midfielder Jan Kirchhoff has identified the need to win home games as the key to the Black Cats’ Premier League survival.
David Moyes’ side are rock bottom in the league with 19 points from 27 games, and Kirchhoff has admitted that time is running out to secure the club’s Premier League status for next season.
The Black Cats have this weekend off owing to FA Cup fixtures elsewhere. They entertain Burnley at the Stadium of Light on 18th March before the international break kicks in.
Kirchhoff has been out injured for the majority of this season.
