Sunderland have scored at least once in every single league match this season – that’s 30 games without drawing a blank.
On the flip side, Tuesday’s 1-1 draw at home to Blackpool means it’s now 10 games in a row where the lads only scored the one.
Five draws from their last six matches has slowed momentum and Jack Ross will surely name an attacking line-up for Friday night’s crucial clash against Accrington at the Stadium of Light.
Victory at home to a side who haven’t even scored, let alone won, in six matches would move Sunderland up to third place with the same games played as the sides around them in League One.
So even if Ross' men may have lost a little bit of ground, they’re still well placed to kick on and achieve that goal of automatic promotion.
As you’d expect, Sunderland are 3/4 favourites to win with Coral, and given the visitors’ recent woes that looks like a generous price – you can bump it up further by backing the Black Cats to win to nil at 19/10.
After a missing a couple of great chances on Tuesday, Will Grigg will be keen to atone and bag his first for the Lads on Friday. Back him to score first at 7/2, 5/4 to score anytime or 4/1 to score 2+ goals.
