Match Preview
To say Sunderland’s form has been patchy is an understatement, with five draws, wins and losses in their fifteen games so far this season. They still await the return of Ellis Simms and Ross Stewart with the Black Cats lacking potency without a recognised striker. Last time out they were beaten 2-0 by Blackburn but were denied a clear penalty before the first goal and replays show the second was offside.
Tony Mowbray will be hoping for better luck against Vincent Kompany’s Burnley at the Stadium of Light but the home side are understandably outsiders for this one with bookies pricing them at 2/1.
Burnley have been impressive so far this season, losing just one game from fifteen matches. But Kompany will be the first to admit they need to convert the draws into wins, with eight so far this campaign. Last time out they were held again on the road to a 1-1 draw at Birmingham.
If the Belgian can get some consistency instilled in his side, they will be strong favourites to win the division. They do go into this clash as favourites, with bookies giving the away side odds of 5/4.
