Ruben Amorim’s side have endured a rocky start to the season, sitting 14th with just two wins from six games. United’s defence has been their biggest concern, conceding in every league match so far, and pressure is mounting on Amorim to spark a turnaround.
A positive is that United usually perform well at Old Trafford, but their inconsistency has made them hard to trust. Players like Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Højlund will be key if
they’re to secure the points.
Betting on Sunderland
- 1XBet Spread: +0.75
- 1XBet Moneyline: 4.40
- 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5
Under Regis Le Bris, Sunderland have been one of the season’s surprise packages, climbing to fifth place with a mix of grit and attacking verve. The Black Cats have scored in five of their six league games and are brimming with confidence after a strong start.
They will see this as a golden chance to capitalise on United’s defensive frailties and add another big scalp to their storybook campaign.
