Sunderland vs Fulham Prediction & Pick
Sunderland shocked Fulham in the first leg of this matchup when Jack Clarke opened the score in the sixth minute. The Black Cats led for the majority of the match until Tom Cairney tied it up for the Cottagers in the 61st minute. Although Sunderland managed to escape with the draw this time, don't count on it happening again.
Fulham is the better club, proven by its controlling the ball for 69% of the first leg. The Cottagers also landed 12 of their 22 shot attempts (54.5%) on goal, whereas the Black Cats were 6-of-17 (35.3%) in that regard.
After drawing a meeting that they should've won, look for Fulham to do everything it takes to leave Stadium of Light with the victory this time around.
Final Score Prediction:'Fulham: 2 | Sunderland: 1

Sunderland vs Fulham Best Bet
< p class="tagStyle_125jist-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm" data-mm-id="_gphyrvzv1">Again, Fulham proved to be the better club statistically in the first leg, so backing the Cottagers at -140 on the moneyline is an acceptable bet.
If you're looking for slightly more value, I recommend backing Sunderland on the spread. After all, Fulham has only won one of its last five matches with Sunderland and that victory came by just one goal. After the two sides played to a draw over the weekend, I can't see the Black Cats losing by more than a goal next time around.
