Matchday 34 of the Premier League brings another interesting fixture, as Sunderland face Nottingham Forest at the Stadium of Light.

After two solid wins, Sunderland suffered a dramatic defeat against Aston Villa in the previous round. That match turned into a real thriller — seven goals, multiple comebacks, and constant momentum shifts. Villa opened the scoring, Sunderland equalized, then conceded twice. Late in the game, Sunderland managed to level the score again in the 86th and 87th minutes, but Aston Villa had the final say with a goal in added time, sealing a 4:3 victory.

Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, have almost secured their place in the league for next season. The team had a decent run of five matches, collecting 9 points, and they were also helped by poor results from their direct competitors, including Tottenham.

Prediction for the Sunderland vs Nottingham Forest

Apart from last week’s goal-heavy match, neither team is known for high scoring games. Even though both sides have more or less achieved their minimum objectives for the season, this doesn’t look like a game where we’ll see open attacking football.

Because of that, a low-scoring match is the most likely scenario.

Prediction: Under 2.5 goals
