Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It may not be what the neutrals want to hear, but we're not predicting a thriller here. The statistics suggest Millwall and Sunderland both can struggle to find the net on occasion, and the odds suggest it's likely there's fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think they're probably right and, with no obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals looks like a smart bet.
