๐๏ธ Team News: Sunderland
Ross Stewart (Achilles tendon surgery), Elliot Embleton (Torn Ankle Ligament) and Corry Evans (Cruciate Ligament Injury) are not available for Sunderland gaffer Tony Mowbray.
Itโs our opinion that The Black Cats will possibly employ a 4-2-3-1 system for the game, handing starts to Anthony Patterson, Trai Hume, Danny Batth, Daniel Ballard, Luke O'Nien, Edouard Michut, Dan Neil, Patrick Roberts, Abdoullah Ba, Jack Clarke and Joe Gelhardt.
๐ฐ Team News: Luton Town
Due to a fully healthy group to choose from, the Luton Town boss Rob Edwards has zero fitness worries at all before this game.
Itโs our belief that The Hatters could decide to make use of a 3-5-2 formation, settling for Ethan Horvath, Gabriel Osho, Tom Lockyer, Amarii Bell, Cody Drameh, Marvelous Nakamba, Allan Campbell, Luke Berry, Alfie Doughty, Elijah Adebayo and Carlton Morris.
๐ญ Prediction
Our feeling is that Luton Town and Sunderland could both find goals hard to come by here.
There should be little in it, and a draw looks quite a realistic result. With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a very competitive game with a 0-0 score at the end of the match.
