Sunderland have remained unbeaten over their first five fixtures of the new League One Season.

They will go into this home fixture on Tuesday as the favourites to bank three points at the Stadium of Light.

They will be taking on a Crewe side who have recovered well from a difficult start to the new campaign. But their successes have all been a home thus far.

Sunderland Preview – Can Black Cats keep up their form?

It has been a W3 D2 record this season from Sunderland in League One, and they will be one of those fancied to make a play off push.

At the Stadium of Light they have gone W1 D1, opening with a draw against Bristol Rovers before taking a 1-0 win over Peterborough.

It has been only the one goal that Sunderland have conceded in this campaign and not once in their last four.

The Black Cats themselves have only tallied six goals in their five games, so goals have been at a premium in their matches so far.

Under 2.5 goals is at 9/10 for Tuesday night’s fixture* (odds taken 22:29 GMT Monday, 19th October).

Each of their last six games in the division have actually gone under that goal line, so it’s well-worth considering.

The home form of the Mackems is pretty strong as well as they have gone undefeated in their last twelve League One home games.

So with them racking up the clean sheets, they do look value to come away with three points in this fixture.

Our betting prediction:
Under 1.5 Goals
5/2

(odds taken 22:29 GMT Monday, 19th October)

 

Sunderland to win to nil has to be a reasonable option in this one for a quote of 6/4* (odds taken 22:29 GMT Monday, 19th October).

It is worth a look at the head to head and that is firmly in favour of Sunerland as well, who have won three of their last four home fixtures against Crewe.

This is the first meeting between the two however, since a 2005 Championship meeting.

In the correct score market for League One football betting, a Sunderland 1-0 option is at 11/2* (odds taken 22:29 GMT Monday, 19th October).

 

Crewe Preview – Can the Railywaymen stick their first away win?

It has not been a bad return to League One action for Crewe who have banked a W2 D1 L2 record.

Their current form is W2 D1 in their last three but the two wins in that sequence did happen on home soil.

So they are searching for their first road success after having gone D1 L1 on the road. It has been the one goal from them in those two fixtures.

They have really tightened up in defence as well having conceded only the one goal in their last three games.

But again, we see that as a benefit of having built up a bit of momentum on home soil in their recent fixtures.

Just like Sunderland, Crewe have produced six goals in their five games and they are now on a three-match scoring streak.

But getting on the scoresheet at the Stadium of Light is not going to be an easy thing at all.

Crewe have taken the one win in their last ten fixtures against Sunderland in all competitions.

That lone win for them against the Black Cats happened in 2003 at the Alexandra Stadium.

If they were to pick up a victory in this one then it would leave them in a wonderful position of being just a point behind Sunderland.

They do have a fit squad to pull from so they do have plenty of reason to be optimistic.

 

Sunderland vs Crewe Betting Advice

It has been more than seven hours since Sunderland last conceded a league goal, so we feel that they are worth riding to come away with a clean sheet win.

We would have to lean towards the Sunderland to win to nil option at 6/4 odds* (odds taken 22:29 GMT Monday, 19th October).

They have been fantastically wateright in defence and even though this is a quick turnaround in matches, we don’t see them falling.

 

Key Facts – Sunderland vs Crewe Betting Tip

  • Sunderland have lost only one of their last 10 against Crewe
  • Sunderland have taken four-straight clean sheets
  • Crewe are unbeaten in their last three league games (W2 D1)

 

The quick turnaround in fact, is likely to take more out of Crewe’s more-limited squad than it is of Sunderlands.

Crewe have done very well to recover from two straight losses at the beginning of the campaign.

But the Railwaymen are yet to prove themselves out on the road in League One so we do expect a low-key win for Sunderland against them.
