Assists in 4-3 loss
Sadiki assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and two chances created in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Aston Villa. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 66th minute.
Analysis: Sadiki assisted Chris Rigg with his first Premier League goal bringing the game back to 1-1 in the ninth minute of the game. This was also his first assist. He has created two assists for the second game in a row, and this is only the fourth time this season that he has created two chances in a game.
Dealing with discomfort
Sadiki (muscular) was forced off in the 71st minute of Saturday's 3-0 loss against Arsenal after experiencing some discomfort, but he did not suffer any injury, coach Regis Le Bris told the media, according to the Sunderland Echo. "He struggled a bit with a bit of discomfort but I think he'll be OK."
Analysis: Sadiki was forced off in the 71st minute of Saturday's loss to the Gunners after feeling some muscular tightness, but he avoided any real injury and is expected to be available going forward for the Black Cats. With the match already out of reach, the change appeared to be purely precautionary rather than performance or injury related. That said, if Sadiki were to miss a match, Lutsharel Geertruida would be the logical fill-in, as Granit Xhaka (ankle) remains sidelined with an injury and is still two to three weeks away from returning.
