Sunderland v Norwich – Wednesday 1st February (8pm)

Tonight’s match at the Stadium of Light between 11^th placed Sunderland and 10^th placed Norwich pits together two in-form teams who have ambitions of a top 10 finish. While Sunderland have had their season transformed since Martin O’Neill’s arrival, Norwich have continued to flourish under Paul Lambert. Ladbrokes have Sunderland as the 10/11 favourites for the win, while Norwich are well worth a bet at 7/2, with a draw priced at 9/4.

O’Neill has restored confidence and belief into his players and they now go into every match believing they can win the three points. Since his arrival he has made the Stadium of Light a fortress, winning three and drawing one of their four league home matches. When Sunderland travelled to Norwich back in September The Canaries recorded a narrow 2-1 win in what was the first ever Premier League meeting between the sides. Tonight’s match is likely to be another closely fought affair and there could well be goals due to the attack minded nature of both teams. Sunderland will be looking to take advantage of their opponents open play as it often leaves them vulnerable at the back, with Lambert’s men failing to keep a clean sheet away from home this season. A 2-2 scoreline at 14/1 could be a worthwhile bet, while Sunderland can be found at 7/1 to win 2-1. Norwich, who are priced at 12/1 to come away with a 2-1 win, haven’t lost away since the start of the December and have scored two goals in their last four games on the road.

Stephane Sessegnon is the 4/1 favourite to open the scoring. The Beninese striker has five goals to his name this season and has scored two in his last three league games for Sunderland, including the opener in their last league match against Swansea. Connor Wickham and Fraizer Campbell are available at 5/1 to score first, while Sebastian Larsson and James McClean can be backed at 8/1. Norwich’s main man Grant Holt has also been handed odds of 8/1 to open the scoring and if he does then Ladbrokes will refund all losing first goalscorer bets.
