Sunderland vs Manchester United Prediction

Sunderland head into a tough home game against Manchester United without a win in their last three league games. The Black Cats have lost two and drawn one, but still remain in the hunt for a top-half finish and possibly European football.

However, their guests arrive at the Stadium of Light on the back of three straight league wins. Manchester United are the clear form favourite for this game, and history suggests that the visitors will secure all three points.

The Red Devils have won five of their last six league games against Sunderland, losing just once. United claimed a 2-0 win in October's reverse league meeting between the pair.

We can see both teams scoring in this game as that has been the case in three of Sunerland's last five matches and in seven of Unitd's last eight outings in the Premier League.

Sunderland conceded five goals in their last home game against Nottingham Forest, and the game before that, they shipped four goals at Villa Park, so you can see why we've backed a comfortable 3-1 scoreline in Manchester United's favour.

Sunderland 1-3 Man Utd
