Prediction: West Ham 1-2 Sunderland
Despite West Ham's historical home advantage in this fixture, Sunderland's resilience and ability to come back from losing positions, coupled with Granit Xhaka's progressive passing and Enzo Le Fée's timely goals, give them a clear route to hurt a fragile home side. Sunderland's ability to dominate in the air will also pose a threat. I am predicting a 2-1 victory for Sunderland.
