Liverpool vs Sunderland odds and score prediction
Sky Sports’ Lewis Jones…
If you’ve been riding the Liverpool goals conceded train in recent weeks, Sunday’s 2-0 stroll against a meek and mild West Ham shouldn’t spook you off the scent.
One clean sheet against a side seemingly allergic to progressive passes doesn’t suddenly fix what has become a very clear trend in that Liverpool are conceding big chances – and plenty of them. Only West Ham, Burnley, Manchester United and Everton are conceding more than Liverpool (23).
Across their last eight games, Liverpool have shipped 16 goals.
The aura of defensive invincibility that Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate once radiated has dimmed.
Sunderland tick the exact boxes Liverpool have struggled with in that they’re energetic, press with enthusiasm and attack space quickly when it’s there. They don’t need to dominate the game to score. All this adds up to both teams to score and over 2.5 goals being a nice slice of value at 11/10 with Sky Bet.
SCORE PREDICTION: 3-1
