Spaniard Alvaro Negredo found the net on his Middlesbrough debut and will be looking to provide the goals to steer his newly promoted club away from the danger zone this season.

His counterpart Jermain Defoe also netted in Sunderland’s opener and looks as sharp as ever at the age of 33. He’ll look to add to his tally as David Moyes seeks to achieve mid-table stability after the club’s consistent flirtation with relegation in the past few seasons.
