Antal Nemeth’s Wolverhampton Wanderers are their visitors to the Stadium of Light. Premier League stats are the most important part of the predictions you'll find below, with head-to-head records included too. There's so much to explore, with graphics and odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers available for seventeen major betting markets via the tabs.

Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's fairly unlikely that this fixture will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and stats point in the same direction as our predictive algorithm on this one. Sunderland and Wolves haven't typically been involved in a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in the Premier League individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a compelling favourite WDW or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.20.
