West Bromwich vs Sunderland Prediction & Betting Tips | 13/04/2024 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this Championship match:

West Bromwich

West Bromwich

Sunderland

Sunderland

After facing no difficulties in a win over Rotherham United, West Bromwich Albion will be aiming to clinch their spot in the playoffs when they take on Sunderland at the Hawthorns on Saturday. The Baggies are eyeing their 15th home win of the process, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for Carlos Corberan’s troops. Both Jayson Molumby and Daryl Dike remain on the sidelines with injuries, but they should be the only absentees in the home team.

The Black Cats, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 53 points on their account. As Sunderland have little to play for in the season finale, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. The likes of Jenson Seelt, Nazariy Rusyn, Niall Huggins, Dennis Cirkin, and Corry Evans should miss out through injuries for the visiting team.

2-1

Highlighted Team (Sunderland):

Sunderland

Sunderland are a professional football club that have been playing their home games at the Stadium of Light since 1997. The capacity of the stadium is 49,000, but before expansion the original ground capacity was 42,000. Red and White shirts are Sunderland’s trademark and the club’s fiercest rivals are Newcastle United. The two local rivals have been contesting in the Tyne-Wear derby since 1898 and there have always been fireworks in what is one of the greatest derbies in English football. Sunderland were on the verge of dropping to the Championship in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign, but experienced tactician Sam Allardyce eventually helped the team avoid relegation.

The Black Cats have won six First Division trophies (now the Premier League), with the team lifting two FA Cup titles. Sunderland won their first FA Cup trophy in 1937, with the team beating Preston North End 3-1 in the title game. The club was founded in 1879 as Sunderland and District Teachers A.F.C.
