Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's fairly unlikely that this game will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and stats point in the same direction as our predictive algorithm on this one. Sunderland and Sheff Wed haven't typically been involved in goal-fests of late, whether that be in the Championship individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.30.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Sunderland are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 45% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.63.
