Sunderland, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Sunderland players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Sheffield United. In that game they had 55% possession and managed 7 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Sheffield United who had 11 attempts and 4 on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Tony Mowbray will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 6 goals they scored. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 18 games. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Ross Stewart will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 5 goals in the last 6 league outings for Sunderland.
Luton Town, Recent FormLuton Town will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their home fixture against Bristol City. They came away from that fixture with a 51% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Bristol City, who managed 6 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Rob Edwards will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 6 goals. Their run of scoring away from home now extends to 8 games. They are proving tough to beat, keeping 4 clean sheets in their last 6 games.
Their unbeaten run away from home now sits at 7 games in a row.
Carlton Morris has scored 5 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Sunderland.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
Sunderland will be confident of finding the net in this one against The Hatters, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 8 encounters between the two sides.
The last 3 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Luton will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 8 games.
Sunderland manager Tony Mowbray has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Dennis Cirkin (Concussion), Amad Diallo (Hamstring), Elliot Embleton (Broken ankle), Corry Evans (Cruciate ligament) and Ross Stewart (Achilles tendon) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Rob Edwards has a number of injury concerns in his Luton squad to contend with: Luke Freeman (Groin), Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu (Unknown), Dan Potts (Hamstring) and Jack Walton (Muscle)
