We put over 2.5 goals at 43% and both teams to score at 49%. We make Sunderland 31% to win, the draw 31% and Leeds 38%, while the best bookmaker prices imply 32%, 30% and 39%. Our verdict is Sunderland or draw: we rate it at 62%, against 64% implied by the best price of 1.57. There is no clear value at the current prices, as the bookmakers rate this at least as highly as we do, so treat it as our most likely sensible outcome rather than a value bet. Odds can move before kick-off and no prediction is certain.
