Match preview

Our model makes Bournemouth clear favourites, giving them a 60% chance of winning against 21% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.66 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 3.1 goals in total (2.05 for Bournemouth, 1.05 for Sunderland), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Bournemouth sit 8th on 12 points; Sunderland are 20th on 5.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
