Sunderland vs Manchester United Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips: Man United to pick up points on the road against struggling Sunderland

EVENT ENDED!

Sunderland fans may well want the season to end next week, as they are rapidly looking completely doomed at the foot of the Premier League table, while Man United will be trying to kick on from frustrating recent performances.

Match Preview

Last time out in the English top flight, Jose Mourinho’s men picked up a late 1-1 draw with Everton, in which they struggled to create clear-cut chances, but Sunderland’s defensive record suggests that the Red Devils will have no such problem on the weekend.

    - Sunderland 0-2 Man Cit
    - Sunderland 0-0 Burnley
    - Watford 1-0 Sunderland
    - Leicester 2-0 Sunderland

Sunderland haven’t scored in their last nine competitive games, with David Moyes’ side going down with a whimper at the moment. Given that Man United have only conceded two goals in their own last four matches - the form book appears condemning.

Mourinho has guided his side to 20 games unbeaten in the Premier League, which is no mean feat, with Sunderland not appearing to be up to the task of stopping them making it 21.

    - Man United 1-1 Bournemouth
    - Middlesbrough 1-3 Man United
    - Man United 0-0 West Brom
    - Man United 1-1 Everton

Sunderland vs Man United Prediction and Betting Advice

Man United will remain without Juan Mata, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling for their travels, with Ashley Young a doubt. After scoring yet again last time out against Everton, however, Zlatan Ibrahimovic remains their key man.

Jermain Defoe has 14 goals in 30 appearances this season in the Premier League, but the England international will have to come up with some magic if Sunderland are to stop Man United having their way.
