Sunderland vs Liverpool Predictions

• Sunderland are unbeaten at the Stadium of Light this season.
• Liverpool have dropped points in their last three Premier League away games.

Black Cats look to extend home streak

Sunderland fell to an unsurprising defeat at the Emirates on Saturday, but the Black Cats have thrived at home this season and should give Liverpool more to think about at the Stadium of Light on Wednesday.

Regis Le Bris’ side have earned 26 of their 36 points on home soil this term, giving them the fourth-best home record in the Premier League. They are the only top-flight team yet to lose a home fixture, and they look a good-value pick to extend that record on Wednesday.

Reds away struggles set to continue

Liverpool, who lost late to Manchester City on Sunday, have failed to win six of their last ten fixtures, and their record on the road leaves much to be desired.

The defending champions have managed just four league victories on their travels and have dropped points in their last three league away days.

Spoils to be shared at Stadium of Light

The return fixture at Anfield ended 1-1, and Sunderland have only lost one of their last four meetings with Liverpool. Combined with their exceptional home record, this makes a Black Cats double chance offering a solid pick.

Four of Liverpool’s last ten have ended all square and Sunderland have drawn six of their competitive home fixtures this season. Four of these ended 1-1, so a repeat of the Anfield meeting between the pair could be on the cards.
