Sunderland vs West Ham Prediction & Betting Tips (16 August)

Relegated from the Premier League in 2017, Sunderland then experienced a real nightmare mediated by a Netflix series where we could see the club going down in League One 3rd Division. The Black Cats have succeeded in their reconstruction since and are back in the elite this season. Last year, they finished in 4th place after the regular phase of championship. Engaged in the Playoffs thereafter, Sunderland dominated Coventry in half 3-2 after extra time after the round trip and Sheffield United in the 2-1 final, which allowed him to validate his climb. The band to Régis Le Bris does not go with the favors of the predictions this season but will do everything to win the maintenance. Take the fight for the last European Strapontines during the previous exercise, West Ham disappointed a lot.

Indeed, the London training had to be satisfied with a poor 14th place in the Premier League. The Hammers have never found the right carburetor but were not threatened by the descent since the three relegations were quickly dropped out. They hope to find a little more serenity this season and fight for the first half of the table. This is an objective in accordance with the wings and financial power of West Ham. 

This summer, Sunderland was forced to let his star Jobe Bellingham go and the promising winger Tom Watson (Brighton). On the other hand, the promoted has invested in order to get to the level of the Premier League. Loaned to the club last season, the French playmaker Le Fée was definitively committed to the club. The leaders also put the grapple on the defender Reinildo (Atletico Madrid), the Diarra (Strasbourg) and Sadiki (Union Saint Gilloise) circles as well as the Ailiers Adingra (Brighton) and Talbi (Club Bruges). A major craftsman of the climb, the French winger Isidor (13 goals in Championship last year) is still there. This is also the case of the Spanish striker Mayenda (10 goals and 5 championship passes last year) as well as neil (22 years old) and Rigg (17) circles, who come out of a great season despite their young age. For West Ham, it is necessary to underline the departure of the Ghanaian winger Kudus (Tottenham). In addition, the Zouma and Coufal defenders were left free.

The Hammers definitively enlisted the French international Todibo, who was already at the club last year. Also note the recruitments of the side Walker-Peters (Southampton) and the winger Malick Diouf (Slavia Prague). The English winger Bowen (13 goals and 8 PL passes last year) is the spearhead of this training which can also count on the German striker Fullkrug (3 goals and 2 passes in 18 PL games last year), the season of which was marred by injuries last year. Also note the presence of the Soucek (9 goals in PL last year) and Paqueta (4 goals in PL last year). The probable compositions for Sunderland - West Ham: Suderland: to come. West Ham: future.
