A match is taking place today at the Stadium of light in Sunderland with the guest Sheffield Wednesday.
In full competitive rhythm, the "black cats" won on Monday 0-3 in Doncaster, pressing in the second place and with a victory tonight, they will overtake Rotherham to be left alone in the penthouse. Their last defeat for the championship was on 2/11 from their current opponent with the heavy 3-0 and they want to give answers. Apart from answers, Sunderland wants to step on the top and hopes not to leave it, ending the nightmare they have been living since 2017 when they experienced two relegated relegations from the Premier League and the Championship, ending up in Ligue 1.
Sheffield Wednesday's equally heavy-handed name has the same goal, namely promotion, it is 5 points away from the top six with one game less but it has to play from 11/12 when it had left with a 0-2 victory over Crew. Almost three weeks away from games is questionable the situation in which he will be tonight in a very difficult home where Sunderland is 9-1-1 and scores an average of 2 goals as home.
Very difficult game for both teams, ambiguous as it goes, with one having rhythm and load and the other out of rhythm but relaxed having focused on this game. I will dare to bet that Sunderland will not lose, so I choose the double chance in their favor and I will combine it with the over 1,5 goals in the game as I expect it to be a goal game. 1X + over 1,5
