Coming into the final six rounds of the English Premier League, 10th-place Sunderland still have plenty to fight for as they journey to European-ranking Aston Villa. Sunderland’s main striker, Brian Brobbey, to find the net is priced very friendly indeed. 

Surprisingly, The Black Cats are only two points away from European football, which would be a fantastic outcome for the promoted side. This will be an obvious goal for Sunderland and, facing an Aston Villa that played in the week, meaning they’ll be more tired and less prepared, the visitors will look to hit hard. 

Also, Sunderland are coming here with two wins under their belt, scoring three goals, which definitely would’ve boosted their confidence. In the EPL, the visitors have netted six goals in their last six, whilst finding the net in each of their last three on the road. Brobbey scored in their most recent away game, from three goal attempts, as well as creating six shots in his last three matches.

Our Aston Villa vs Sunderland Prediction

The Villains have allowed goals in seven out of their last nine league matches on home soil, often being slightly more fragile in their match directly after a UEL game, which bodes well for an ambitious Sunderland. 

The visitors’ main man in front of goal is Brobbey, who found the net in their last away game, plus had great chances last weekend despite not being on the scoresheet. The Dutchman is quick, powerful, and good on the break, all of which are good signs against a team that has increased tiredness.
