Leeds have no fresh injury concerns heading into Tuesday’s fixture.

Crysencio Summerville to score anytime @ 21/10

Crysencio Summerville has been one of the most exciting players to watch in the Championship this season and he is playing a huge role in Leeds’ quest for an instant return to the Premier League.

Summerville is excelling in the second tier under Daniel Farke. He is Leeds’s top scorer in the league with nine goals so far this term and it is a testament to the work the player puts in on the pitch. The youngster is likely to cause all sorts of problems for Sunderland this weekend and we fancy him to score his 10th goal of the campaign up in the north east.

Leeds and both teams to score @ 5/2

After winning five out of their last six league games, momentum is definitely with Leeds here even though they are the away side. Sunderland interim boss Mike Dodds did very well to win his first game in charge against an in-form West Bromwich Albion, but Leeds are a different kettle of fish.

The Yorkshire outfit keep getting better each time they play under Farke and they possess one of the best attacks in the division. Sunderland have quality of their own going forward but there are still question marks about their defensive players.

We are expecting there to be goals at both ends in this contest but it is hard to see anything other than a Leeds win come full-time.
