2017-05-13 - Sunderland vs Swansea City
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Football: English Premier League
13th May 2017 – Kickoff time 21:05
Introduction:
It is hard to pick a winner in this match because Sunderland have already been relegated to the Championships while Swansea are still battling against relegation. The Black Cats have failed to win in their last six home games while Swansea have not won any of their last six away games.
Sunderland
Sunderland is playing for pride now as they are already relegated having managed just 24 points on the standings so far. They have a home record of 3 wins, 5 draws and 10 defeats, having scored 16 and conceded 32 at home this season. In their last three home games they lost to Manchester United 3-0, drew with West Ham 2-2 and lost to Bournemouth 1-0.
They can take comfort that they have only lost to Swansea once in their last six home meetings which was a 3-1 defeat in 2013. There have been three draws and a single win since 2012.
Swansea
Swansea are just a points above the relegation zone and will want to win this match. They have 35 points and a win could put more pressure on Hull City who plays on Sunday. They have an away record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 13 defeats, scoring 16 and conceding 36. In their last three away games they lost to West Ham and Watford by 1-0 but managed a surprise 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Past Meetings:
The last two meetings have been draws when Sunderland hosted, ending in 0-0 and 1-1. Swansea did win 3-1 back in 2014 and that very same season they managed the double as they also won 4-0 in 2013. Now Swansea has already won 3-0 when they hosted, so I am expecting Swansea to get the double once again.
The Pick:
Go for Swansea and give the 1/2 ball Asian Handicap.
