Sunderland set to continue promising run at Crewe
Crewe Alexandra vs Sunderland - 19/10/2021
5064
On Tuesday night, Crewe Alexandra host Sunderland at the Alexandra Stadium, as two teams from opposite ends of the League One table clash.
Crewe have made a poor start to their League One campaign and currently sit 23rd place in the standings. However, their position is certainly not yet desperate so early in the season, as Alex are just three points adrift of safety.
David Artell’s team need to arrest a poor recent run of form if they are to move out of the relegation zone, though, as they head into this clash on the back of a five-game winless run in the third tier.
A 3-0 defeat at north west rivals Fleetwood Town last time out ended a run of three straight draws.
As you would expect from a team in their current position, Alex have a poor recent home record, as they have won just one of their previous five League One outings at the Alexandra Stadium. Crewe have also won just two of their previous 11 league matches on home soil.
While Crewe are just concerned with survival in League One, the visitors are once again looking to mount a promotion push.
Lee Johnson’s team are fourth place in the League One table but are just a point shy of top spot in the table.
The Black Cats recent league form has been promising, as a 2-1 win at Gillingham last time out means that the team from the north east have now won three of their previous four outings in the third tier.
One facet of their game that needs to improve if they are to win promotion this season is their away form, as Sunderland have won just one of their last four away matches in League One.
Forebet predicts that Sunderland will record a victory in a high-scoring outing to enhance their position in the table.
