Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match

Sunderland and Huddersfield Town are two attacking sides who have what it takes to make this an entertaining and eventful match.

That's why we highly recommend taking the bet of over 2.5 goals. The bet wins if there are 3 or more goals scored in the match, and if there are 2 goals or fewer, the bet loses.

Our prediction is: Sunderland to win the 1st half

While the half-time market is not a particularly popular betting market, it does provide a good deal of value. And this is true for Sunderland vs Huddersfield Town, where we have Sunderland to win the first half as our best bet.

Sunderland has been quite a fast starter at home as they quickly put the pressure on their visitors in the opening minutes. That strategy should lead to a Sunderland taking an advantage into half-time.
