Liverpool hope to go back to winning ways at Anfield, as they face high-flying Premier League newcomers Sunderland.
Given the quality of Liverpool's squad, I see them leaving the pitch with all three points against Sunderland. But I'm not going for the moneyline for my best bet this time, opting instead for a bet on corners.
Read below my Liverpool vs. Sunderland predictions and free betting picks for Wednesday, December 3.
Premier League predictions for Liverpool vs Sunderland
My Liverpool vs Sunderland best bet: Over 10.5 corners (+100 at Sports Interaction)
Premier League games involving Liverpool have an average of 10.46 corners, and 46% of their matches in the EPL have had more than 9.5 corners.
The Reds have an average of 5.15 corners won per game this season. Regarding corners for their opponents, Liverpool usually concede an average of 5.31 per match.
There have been over 10.5 corners in 67% of Liverpool's home games since the start of the campaign, with Sunderland's percentage at 33%.
I believe Liverpool will try taking everything up front, and there should be plenty of context for corners.

Liverpool 1H moneyline
Granit Xhaka to get carded
Sunderland's players received a combined 27 yellow cards since the start of the season, with Liverpool at 26. Neither team runs away from contact, so the ref's patience is expected to be tested.
Granit Xhaka has already been booked four times, and I see the Sunderland captain trying to lead by attitude, and he can easily go into the ref's book.
Liverpool have won their last 12 Premier League matches against newly promoted clubs, winning 26 of their last 28 at Anfield, including the last 12 in a row.
Liverpool have lost just one of their last 25 midweek Premier League game. Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 10 EPL meetings with Sunderland.
