WEST HAM - SUNDERLAND PREDICTION STATS
West Ham have opened with two wins, 1 draw and a loss. The wins were 1 goal victory over Villa and a 3 goal win over Fulham, both with clean sheets. The loss was a 3-0 away loss at Swansea. The draw was a goalless one highlighting how strong defensively they are. They are only averaging 1.75 goals per game which is the lowest in the league.
Sunderland are on three draws from three, they had a tough opening with games against Arsenal and Liverpool and a trip to Swansea. They are the second bottom side in the goal averages with only 2 goals a game.
TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY
West Ham have put forward three really strong matches and 1 serious capitulation. Playing a game centred around workrate and involving an approach to percentage play West Ham have given two excellent power plays in their victories. They completely dominated Fulham and were far superior to Villa, both times giving nothing away at the back and looking solid. The draw and the loss involved a series of basic errors resulting in giveaway goals. With three attackers and late breaking midfield assistance West Ham only really have a Plan A, if this fails they have no backup as the 3-0 loss at Swansea highlights as they offered nothing going forward. Only striker Andy Carroll remains unavailable.
Sunderland have started well after three tough assignments and will be glad of the three points and unbeaten start. The play a patient passing style and will be looking to build on the promising start from new striker Steven Fletcher, who looks like he still has the scoring knack. Sunderland like to get the ball out wide and deliver dangerous balls into the box. They have a solid back line and have looked strong across the middle. Adam Johnson and Carlos Cueller are serious doubts with injury.
