Predict the Premier League: Sunderland stay top dogs but Fulham are closing in

Sunderland's Tony Ratton may have watched his Black Cats limp away from the Etihad following a 3-0 defeat at champions Manchester City on Saturday, but the big man still remains the top dog in this competition.

The Sunderland fan recorded a respectable eight points to stay on top of our leaderboard, but he is being hunted down by Fulham's Neil Springate. Only two points separate the pair at the top, as Sunderland celebrate three weeks in charge.

Reading's Jon Keen was this week's biggest mover thanks to his haul of 14 points.

At the opposite end, Stoke's Jack Heaney is 10 points adrift of Tottenham's Mike Richards and 14 away from safety. Wigan's Jimmy Shine has slipped into the bottom three, as Arsenal's Josh Ben Moshe continues his march up the table. However, it's all to play for as only seven points split Swansea's Jim Barry in fifth place and the bottom three.

Here is how the table looks heading into the international break.
