The Value Lies With Under 2.5

There’s a strong argument to go with Under 2.5 on the Total Goals market. Survival hopefuls Oxford and Sunderland might not reach this total and we’re a fan of the odds of 1.67 that are available for this prediction.

Teams’ Last Clash Saw 2-0 Sunderland Win

Oxford United played out a 1-1 draw in their last game. This was away from home at Cardiff City Stadium against Cardiff City. The U's ended up with just 39% possession and one shot on target, with Cameron Brannagan registering the goal.

Sunderland have suffered three straight defeats, recently being beaten at home by Blackburn Rovers 1-0 at Stadium of Light. The Wearside club recorded 47% possession and managed two shots on goal.

Sunderland have triumphed in the last two encounters against Oxford. A 2-0 home victory at Stadium of Light followed a 2-1 away win at Kassam Stadium. The previous 9 H2H games have featured five Sunderland victories and four draws.

Expert Championship Analysis

A good deal of research goes into our football picks. We start by studying the latest form and getting a handle on injuries. The key stats can then be used as the missing piece of the jigsaw.

Key Oxford vs Sunderland league stats:

  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 4 of the last 5 Oxford games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 15 of the last 20 Oxford games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in the last 3 Oxford games.

Oxford vs Sunderland Prediction

We don’t anticipate that the sides can combine to reach the three-goal mark and that means wagering Under 2.5 Goals. The odds of 1.67 look easy to back when it comes to a low-scoring Championship encounter.

If you want to place an Under 2.5 Goals bet at larger odds, then there’s the chance to combine this selection with BTTS No. A Total Goals & Both Teams to Score wager is a popular option.

Under 2.5 Probability

The latest betting odds imply that our pick has a 60% prospect of winning. After careful examination, our experts have this probability close to 70%. This is why we can recommend this bet.

Corners Prediction

Under 10.5 Corners 1.67 Bet365 logo

In three straight Oxford games, the 10.5 Total Corners line has not been covered. We recommend backing the 1.67 that the teams aren’t able to cover the line, with this Total Corners bet hopefully providing a return.
