Middlesbrough Sunderland betting prediction

The away team plays against Middlesbrough a match for the 28 round, which had been delayed, after 5 wins, 6 draws and 21 losses in the league so far. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins and 12 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 23 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Sunderland has a record of 2 wins and 8 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (7 out of 15 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 6 of the last 32 matches for the Premier League, they have reached half‑time in front in 3 of those 6 matches and have held on to the lead in 4. In 32 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 24 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 15 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Sunderland is on the pitch for the thirty-third match in the English Premiership, also needing a positive result to try to ease the bad situation they face in the competition, since they do not win for eight rounds, having lost six matches in that period. As a visitor, the team has the fourth worst campaign of the championship, having won only seven of the forty-five points so far. Their “out-of-home” attack is one of the most ineffective, having scored only ten goals in fifteen games, nine of which failed to clear the scoring. For this match, the coach must keep the team in the 4-1-3-2 or in the 4-3-3, and they can count on Larsson again.

Confirmed Lineup: Jordan Pickford, Billy Jones, Javi Manquillo, Jason Denayer, Didier N'Dong, Darron Gibson, Wahbi Khazri, Jermain Defoe, Victor Anichebe.
Coach: J. O'Shea, L. Cattermole, A. Neil.
