Sunderland-Fulham is an FA Cup fourth round match and is played on Wednesday at 20:45: odds, predictions, live TV and streaming.
A week ago Sunderland, a Championship side, forced a 1-1 draw against top-ranked Fulham, resulting in an annoying replay that was frowned upon by most teams in the top flight. The FA Cup’s historic regulations stipulate that in the event of a 90-minute tie, the match must be replayed on a reversed field.
The Stadium of Light will host the return leg of the round of 16 tie. Both sides already know the name of their next opponents: if they make it through to the round of 16, they will be faced by Leeds, who had no trouble disposing of Accrington Stanley. In the London game, the Cottagers dominated far and wide, as was to be expected, but wasted a huge number of chances, allowing the visitors to escape Craven Cottage unscathed and avoid defeat. Clarke even took the lead after just six minutes, but the Black Cats then conceded the equaliser at the start of the second half when Fulham’s captain Cairney scored. Marco Silva made perhaps a little too many changes from the line-up he had fielded in the league, where he faced tough derbies with Tottenham and Chelsea in the last two days.
Fulham continue to impress
With Spurs the Bianconeri lost narrowly, while against the hated Blues they held on, taking home a precious 0-0 that allows them to stay in eighth place, hang on to the train to Europe and – probably most importantly – avoid being overtaken by their stadium neighbours.
Sunderland’s Roberts
Tony Mowbray’s Sunderland are also having a league well above expectations, and after twenty-nine days they are ninth, fighting hard for a playoff spot. Not bad for a team that only returned to the cadets last summer. After the draw in the FA Cup, the red and whites picked up another in the Championship, drawing at home to Millwall.
The Prediction
This time Marco Silva seems inclined to field many of the starters and the feeling is that victory – albeit through a rough contest as in the first leg – will eventually come. We don’t expect a match with many goals, considering that in the last five games the Cottagers’ scoring average has dropped considerably.
The Sunderland-Fulham
probable line-ups.
- SUNDERLAND (4-2-3-1): Patterson; Hume, Ballard, Batth, Alese; Neil, Michut; Roberts, Diallo, Clarke; Gelhardt.
- FULHAM (4-2-3-1): Rodak; Tete, Adarabioyo, Diop, Kurzawa; Cairney, Reed; Reid, Pereira, Willian; Mitrovic.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 0-1
