My Sunderland vs Burnley best bet: Sunderland to win (-135 at Sports Interaction)
Sunderland have lost just one of their last 12 home league games against Burnley, sporting eight wins and three draws.
The Black Cats have yet to lose back-to-back matches this season, putting them in good company alongside Arsenal, Brighton, and Manchester United.
Meanwhile, Burnley remain winless in their last 14 Premier League games. This trip won’t get any easier, as Sunderland are the only side yet to lose a home Premier League match this season, winning six and drawing five of their 11 contests at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland to win
Brian Brobbey to record 2+ shots on target
Over 4.5 cards
Brian Brobbey has scored three goals in his last four Premier League appearances for Sunderland, and the striker boasts the best minutes-per-goal ratio on the Black Cats this season.
Referee Paul Tierney has overseen 13 games this season, issuing 48 yellow cards — an average of nearly 3.7 per match. Sunderland averages 2.13 cards per game, compared with 1.57 for Burnley.
I expect a fierce encounter on Monday evening, with plenty of contacts likely to produce cards.
