Man United Form


Man United are unbeaten in three of their previous five Premier League matches. The Red Devils held Fulham to a 1-1 draw and beat Burnley 3-2 at home before the September internationals.

United then lost 3-0 away against rivals Man City before defeating Chelsea 2-1 at Old Trafford in September.

Ruben Amorim’s side couldn’t build on the Chelsea victory and lost 3-1 at Brentford. United conceded twice in the first half and Benjamin Sesko scored before Brentford struck a third in the 95th minute.

Sunderland Form 


Sunderland have made a decent return to the Premier League this season and beat West Ham 3-0 at home in their opening game.

The Black Cats followed that victory with a 2-0 loss at Burnley and a 2-1 home win over Brentford. Consecutive draws at Crystal Palace 0-0 and Aston Villa at home 1-1 followed.

Regis Le Bris’ outfit edged Nottingham Forest to a 1-0 victory on Saturday. Omar Alderete scored on the counter-attack as Sunderland allowed 1.68 XG and faced 22 shots.
