Sunderland hosts Hull City in the English EFL Cup 1/64 finals. The match will be played on Saturday, September 5th at Stadium of Light (Sunderland)
Sunderland is still trying to return to the Championship. The team took the ninth line in the last season of League One. At the same time, it has a reliable defense. Only Coventry City conceded less. The problem of the Cats is well known - the team shows very mediocre results on a foreign pitch. But if we look at the home matches of the last season, Sunderland suffered only one defeat. The hosts have already held two friendly matches in the offseason and beat the representatives of the lower division.

Incompetent leadership, the sale leaders, and holes in the defense - everything is completely logical. The Tigers deservedly relegated to League One. And it is far from the fact that they will return soon. They even managed to become infected with the coronavirus. Four clean losses at the finish line, and a 0-8 defeat to Wigan. Hull City had the weakest defense in the Championship. And it has not held a single match in the short offseason. Let the rivals be different now. But this year, Hull City was able to gain only one away victory.
It is difficult to say what to expect from the visitors not only in this match, but also during the season. Many players have left, and there are many new players. The Tigers did not have an understanding with each other even before, and many openly refused to play in this club. Therefore, not everything is so good with the atmosphere in Hull City. Against this background, Sunderland looks almost like a role model. The hosts perform very well at home. The Cats are favorites of the upcoming match. And I do not know what is the advantage of the visitors. I will bet on Sunderland’s victory with a zero handicap. According to the management, there is only one goal for the season - promotion.
Prediction for the match: Sunderland to win with 0.0 handicap
