Our prediction for the match Sunderland vs Luton Town
“The Black Cats” had an unsuccessful last season. They got only 56 points, taking only 16th place based on additional indicators. “The Hatters”, having risen to the Premier League for the first time in decades, expectedly spent the entire season there in the relegation zone, having flown out early.
If failures in the Premier League were expected for the club, now it is frankly disappointing, remaining an outsider already in the Championship. The team has already replaced the coach, but everything, to tell the truth, remains as bad, except that it has become even worse: the club has drawn only in the struggle with Preston since Christmas (a 0-0 draw was pretty logical), while simultaneously flying out of the cup competition. Speaking about the previous round, there was only a 1-1 draw in the meeting with Sheffield Wednesday. Regis Le Bris was invited to Sunderland in the summer. And it seems that the specialist even exceeds expectations, because the club is fighting for a ticket to the Premier League (and a direct one). Half of the matches are won, however, the misfire in the cup confrontation with Stoke City was followed by the missing of points in the battles against both Burnley and Plymouth – those meetings resulted in draws. And the team shared points in the struggle with Watford, ending in a productive 2-2 draw, after a 3-2 score in the game against Middlesbrough.
The French mentor’s wards play carefully, conceding 0.9 goals per match. As a result, they, even scoring a little more than one and a half goals per game, can stay among the leaders. The current guests’ attack provides only 1 goal, conceding 1.63 goals on average per round.
