Sunderland - Stoke City predictions

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Stoke City are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, Sunderland should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

Stoke City will have little to hope for in this match. 3.90 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

Despite the fact Sunderland also had home-field advantage in the previous round, their performance was anything but impressive. The Championship betting predictions were quite optimistic, but they ended the first half with a tie and proceeded to narrowly lose the game.

The last time we saw The Potters they were playing a home game against Birmingham City, which most experts consider a relatively balanced matchup. Still, an early concession forced them on the defensive and they were unable to catch up for the remainder of the game, ultimately losing 1:2.

Though a home win is priced at 1.99, the hosts lost their most recent game against Stoke City. The two teams played earlier in the season, though Sunderland were the visitors and the goal difference was quite narrow.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.84.
