Sunderland form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Sunderland playing as the away team in the League One this season. Sunderland seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Sunderland are travelling after their nice 5-0 home win in the League One against Tranmere Rovers (placed 21st). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Wycombe Wanderers wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As mentioned above, Sunderland was the only team on the pitch versus Tranmere Rovers in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task.

Sunderland has another fixture away, a Carabao Cup game, against Oxford United in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Sunderland are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 7 away goals from 7 games (in the league). Sunderland have conceded 10 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last three meetings between these two teams are: 0 wins for Shrewsbury Town, 1 draw and 2 wins for Sunderland. Over 2,5 goals: 0 times; under 2,5 goals: 3 games.
