Lech Poznań v Sunderland
Our call
We looked at this match and did not find a call worth making. That can change as team news comes in: calls are looked at again every fifteen minutes until kick-off, so one can change or come down, and each closes when the match starts. the bet slip stays exactly as posted.
Lech Poznań v Sunderland is one to leave alone. There is a likely outcome here, but every bookmaker has it shorter than it deserves, so there is nothing to take.
Preview
Lech Poznań are bottom of the table, but their underlying performance makes them dangerous. They have generated the superior opportunities in five of their last seven outings. While Sunderland have lost three of their last six, their current results mask their true output. They often create high quality openings despite holding the ball less, even though they have netted only 8 times from chances usually worth 15. The visitors struggle with key losses across the pitch, particularly losing the movement and finishing of their leading marksman. With both sides missing a significant chunk of their attacking threats, the match hinges on efficiency. Lech will dictate the play, but Sunderland’s ability to punish teams on the break will define the result.
