Sunderland v Bournemouth Betting Preview – Premier League 29th April 3.00pm
What can you make out of this game? Three of the last four between these at the Stadium of Light have ended in a draw and that’s probably going to have appeal in this one. Sunderland need more than that though of course, and they could be in with a chance here because Bournemouth have been struggling to record wins out on the road.

Sunderland v Bournemouth Betting Tips
Well, following their midweek defeat against Middlesbrough, which was as big of a hammer blow as it could get, Sunderland are pretty much down and out. They are twelve points away from safety heading into this weekend of action. They have failed to win any of their last nine games in the top flight now and since Christmas have won just the one game. David Moyes’ charges are looking lifeless and they have scored in only one of their last nine league games, so Bournemouth to win to nil a bet365 is a quote of 7/2. Earlier in the season when the two met, Sunderland did manage a 2-1 win at the Vitality Stadium, and they have only lost one of their previous nine games against Bournemouth in all competitions, winning five of those and drawing three. Both teams to score at bet365 is a price of 4/7 and that has happened in each of the last four between these at the Stadium of Light. In the correct score market, the shortest priced option is the 1-1 draw at a price of 6/1. Three of the last four between these at Sunderland have ended in that scoreline.
Sunderland’s Jermain Defoe, who is on a big nine-match goal drought now is 20/21 outright anytime goalscorer favourite for this one, with Bournemouth’s Josh King at 8/5. King has scored in three of Bournemouth’s last four Premier League games. Bournemouth eased to a 4-0 win over Middlesbrough last time out (at home) and they have actually put together some decent form of W3 D3 L2 in their last eight games in the Premier League so they are doing alright. Bournemouth have suffered just the one loss in their last four away games in the top-flight (D3) but they have failed to win any of their last seven out on the road. The Cherries have only gone W2 D5 L10 out on the road in the top flight this season. Bournemouth’s only ever victory over the Black Cats came in their first Premier League clash back in September 2015 (2-0), with goals from Callum Wilson and Matt Ritchie securing the points. You have an under 2.5 goals option with Bet365 at 11/10 and that has happened in three of the last four at Sunderland between them.

Sunderland v Bournemouth Predictions
Draw: Bournemouth are far better going forward that Sunderland are but this one is just likely going to peter out into a draw. Three of the last four between them on Wearside have done so, so look for it to happen again.
