Best Tip: Arsenal to win

We could well see a packed Stadium of Light on Saturday night but, unfortunately, we predict most of those in attendance will be leaving the place 90 minutes later rather less happy than they arrived. The statistics below, including head-to-head (H2H) records and recent form, are all pointing towards an away win in the win / draw / win market, with visitors Arsenal getting the better of hosts Sunderland. It could be a bruising afternoon for home gaffer Régis Le Bris but, in the meantime, we'd advise users make the most of best bookmaker odds of 1.50 to back the away win.
