Sunderland vs Watford Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sunderland <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sunderland came out on the right end of a five-goal thriller on Monday evening when they beat rivals Middlesbrough 3-2 in the Wear-Tees derby at the Riverside and that excellent result is likely to add fresh momentum to the Black Cats\u2019 promotion hopes in the Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A home test against an out-of-sorts Watford, should be an easier one to pass and Sunderland will kick off Saturday\u2019s tie as favourites to win on EFL betting sites<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regis Le Bris\u2019s troops have lost only once in 12 assignments in the Championship, while Sunderland have also collected ten of the last 12 points on offer at the Stadium Of Light, so expect them to set the tempo again here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team news:<\/strong> Sunderland were without Romaine Mundle, Niall Huggins and Ajibola Alese in their win over Middlesbrough on Monday and all three players remain doubtful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Predicted Lineup: <\/strong>Patterson, Hume, Mepham, O’Nien, Cirkin, Neil, Bellingham, Roberts, Rigg, Le Fee, Isidor<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watford<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Watford\u2019s misery continued at the weekend when they slipped to a 1-0 loss at home to Norwich City. The Hornets have now lost three Championship fixtures on the bounce and have slid down to 12th<\/sup> position in the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A first-half red card for Youssouf Bayo scuppered Watford\u2019s chances at the weekend, though manager Tom Cleverley retains the backing of the Hornets\u2019 support, even if the decision-makers in the boardroom have their doubts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watford have won just once in eight attempts on the road in the Championship and it\u2019s difficult to see how they can defy a big price on sites for sports betting<\/a> to upset the odds at Sunderland on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team news:<\/strong> Kwadwo Baah, Pierre Dwomoh and keeper Daniel Bachmann are all in the treatment room for Watford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Predicted Lineup:<\/strong> Bond, Andrews, Abankwah, Pollock, Larouci, Louza, Dele-Bashiru, Sissoko, Kayembe, Chakvetadze, Vata <\/p>\n\n\n\n
