Sunderland News and Form

Sunderland have not been defeated at the Stadium of Light this season in League One. On home soil, they have taken a W8 D7 L0 record in the division. However, the wins have just been eluding them recently as they have drawn three of their last four on Wearside (W1). Actually, home and away combined, Sunderland have drawn six of their last eight league games. So drawn fixtures have been a growing trend.

Each of their last six drawn games have been 1-1 results, each of their last three wins have all been 1-0 results. The Black Cats have been good defensively at home, conceding only an average of 0.87 goals per game. Sunderland have scored in every single league game played this season. They are currently unbeaten in nine overall home and away (W3 D6). Each of the nine games in that sequence ended under 2.5 goals as well.

Accrington News and Form

Stanley are sat in 16th place going into this game but they are only three points above the drop zone. They aren’t carrying much form with them at the moment either. Accrington have taken just the two points from their last six League One games. Away from home, they have earned only a D1 L3 record in their last four.

Another big trend with them is that they have failed to score in any of their last six league fixtures. Accrington have produced a W5 D4 L7 record on their travels this season in League One. Only one of those five victories were at a side who are currently in the top half of the table. In total Stanley have only come up with 14 goals in 16 away games. They have been level at the halftime break in nine of those away games. Only bottom side Wimbledon have produced fewer league goals in the division than Accrington have.
