Another promising match of the 6th round of the English Premier League will take place at the Stadium of Light, where Sunderland will face Brighton & Hove Albion.
The last two rounds were difficult for the hosts, as they faced two leaders of the current and previous seasons — Arsenal and Manchester City. Unfortunately for Sunderland fans, both matches ended in defeat, 0:2 and 3:5 respectively.
Brighton had the opposite situation, as the team won its last two games and moved up to third place in the Premier League table. It is also worth looking at how Fabian Hürzeler’s side achieved these victories. Brighton & Hove Albion scored 8 unanswered goals in the two matches, with 3 of them coming against last season’s champions, Arsenal.

Prediction for the Sunderland vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton will travel as the favorite, which is not surprising considering the club’s recent impressive results. However, Sunderland are traditionally a strong home team that earns most of its points on home soil. Despite the clear favorite, I expect the game to be unpredictable but high-scoring, so my recommendation is to bet on over 2.5 goals.
