Sunderland really need to win this match if they want to steer clear of a relegation battle ahead of a cluttered Christmas period. One win in 11 matches (against 10 man Fulham) is certainly relegation form and five league matches without a home win, and just four goals scored illustrates exactly where the Black Cats’ main problem is.

Reading are four points adrift of Sunderland and six off safety going into this match and are in danger of getting cut adrift at the bottom along with QPR. They would probably take a point here given that they have only managed two on the road all season and have failed to score in half of their eight Premier League matches away from the Madjeski already this term.

This certainly doesn’t have the makings of a classic match and given that both sides struggle in front of goal, a bet on under 2.5 goals (4/5 with Sportingbet) may well be the best bet of the night. There is also reason to back a 0-0 scoreline at 10/1 but as you should always does, bet on ‘no goalscorer’ (10/1 with Bet Victor) just incase an own goal separates the teams.
