Sunderland Burton Albion betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this clash will be the occurrence of a few goals. The two teams have many difficulties, mainly defensive. In addition, the two sets need to try the last effort to escape the relegation zone, and it will not be easy, considering that the teams immediately above would have to "slip" in several games. Thus, this need to score can promote a more open game, with both teams risking everything.

Analysis Sunderland

After 6 wins, 16 draws and 21 losses, the home team is in the 24th position, havinf won 34 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Reading by (2‑2), after in the previous match they have tied (1‑1) at home, against Norwich City. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Sunderland has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 43 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 28 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sunderland arrives at this round after a 2-2 away draw against Reading. Like the opponent of this round, the home team should play in a tactical system in 4-3-3, in order to try to take advantage of the counter-attacks. Thus, it is expected that Sunderland will take a more offensive posture, with the aim of trying to reach the goal as quickly as possible. Sunderland's coach will not be able to count on Duncan Watmore for being injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Jason Steele, Billy Jones, Marc Wilson, Lamine Koné, Callum McManaman, George Honeyman, Paddy McNair, Aiden McGeady, Ashley Fletcher.
Coach: J. O'Shea, L. Cattermole, A. Neil.

In 43 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 25 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Like the opponent of this round, Burton usually plays in a 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Sbarra, Boyce and Akins. The away team when it invests in the offensive process usually does it through the right aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by the right back Brayford. Coach Nigel Clough should have all the players at his disposal.
