Prediction: 2-0
Norwich
All eyes will be on Stadium of Light when Sunderland and Norwich square off against each other in the Championship derby on Saturday. The Black Cats did well to beat Swansea in South Wales at the weekend and they are seen as favourites to beat the Canaries at home as well. Even though all Abdullahi, Browne, Huggins, Mundle, Poveda, and Seelt remain in the recovery room, home win should be considered as Sunderland have been scoring goals for fun of late.
Norwich City, on the other hand, produced an under-par performance in a 2-1 loss to Burnley and given their three-game winless run in the Championship, there is a big value in betting on the Black Cats. In their last meeting at Stadium of Light Sunderland defeated Norwich City 3-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. The likes of Liam Gibbs, Gabriel Forsyth, and Joshua Sargent miss out with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Sunderland):
Sunderland are a professional football club that have been playing their home games at the Stadium of Light since 1997. The capacity of the stadium is 49,000, but before expansion the original ground capacity was 42,000. Red and White shirts are Sunderland’s trademark and the club’s fiercest rivals are Newcastle United. The two local rivals have been contesting in the Tyne-Wear derby since 1898 and there have always been fireworks in what is one of the greatest derbies in English football. Sunderland were on the verge of dropping to the Championship in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign, but experienced tactician Sam Allardyce eventually helped the team avoid relegation.
The Black Cats have won six First Division trophies (now the Premier League), with the team lifting two FA Cup titles. Sunderland won their first FA Cup trophy in 1937, with the team beating Preston North End 3-1 in the title game. The club was founded in 1879 as Sunderland and District Teachers A.F.C.
