Premier League
Exactly 10 rounds West Ham went without a win. Finally, they recorded one last week with a 2:1 away victory over Tottenham. This slightly relieved the pressure on coach Espirito Santo, who was already under strain. However, West Ham does not know what a clean sheet is. They have not had a single one in their 11 home games, and in 9 of them, they conceded more than one goal.
Sunderland won 2:1 at home against Crystal Palace in the last round and maintained their place in the top half of the table. Since winning against Chelsea away in October, however, they have not won another away match – six consecutive away games now. The good news, however, is that they can now rely on a mostly full squad. Sunderland was the most affected in terms of players in the Africa Cup tournament, which has now concluded.
Prediction: both teams to score, X2 double chanceIt is a fact that Sunderland is having a better season so far, and it wouldn't be a surprise if they snatch at least a point, even though they have been shaky in their recent away matches. They are now relying on almost a full squad, while West Ham is struggling even at home and conceding quite a few goals.
