Matchweek 15 of the Premier League will continue at the Etihad Stadium, where Manchester City host Sunderland.

City are doing everything they can to chase Arsenal in the title race, though not always with consistent success. The Citizens have won their last two games — against Leeds United (3-2) and Fulham (5-4) — yet dropped important points previously away to Newcastle United and Aston Villa, which still keeps the gap from the top rather noticeable.

Despite Sunderland losing momentum in their recent outings, they remain a dangerous opponent for any club in England. After 14 matches played, Régis Le Bris’ team sit in sixth position with 23 points collected.

Prediction for the Manchester City vs Sunderland

Sunderland are a strong side with a highly disciplined defensive line capable of taking points even from top clubs — including on the road. City will not have an easy time breaking through their defense. However, the Citizens’ attacking power over 90 minutes should be enough to tilt the game in their favor.

Recommended bet: Manchester City to win.
