Two teams stuck in the Premier League<\/a>‘s mid-table will meet at the Stadium of Light on Sunday at 2pm. Fulham <\/a>sit just two points behind Sunderland<\/a>, both leaking goals and struggling for consistency, but with neither side in real danger or with much to play for beyond pride and a top-half finish. It’s got the feel of a match that could go either way, but the numbers hint at a couple of edges if you look hard enough.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Prediction<\/th>\nOdds & Bookmaker<\/th>\nConfidence<\/th>\nWhy I’m Backing It<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Sunderland to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n13\/8 @ Bet365<\/a>
(38.1%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nFulham concede 1.54 per game, Sunderland have the better defensive record (1.15 conceded\/game), more clean sheets (8 vs 5) and have lost just one game at home this season. The price implies 38% but I rate Sunderland’s true chance just north of 43% given Fulham’s defensive frailties.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Brian Brobbey Anytime Scorer<\/strong><\/td>\n9\/4 @ Sky Bet<\/a>
(30.8%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBrobbey has 5 goals in 1,132 minutes \u2014 that’s 0.40 per 90, so a goal every 225 minutes. Fulham’s defence is leaky and Brobbey’s underlying numbers are solid. 9\/4 implies 31%, but his actual rate is closer to 36% if he gets his usual minutes.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Odds correct at the time of writing.<\/small><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
