Against Coventry in the 2025 play-off semi-final second leg, they were 1–0 down after normal time.

Back Sunderland and a win wins, a draw normally refunds the stake and a defeat loses.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare what each selection requires before looking at the potential return.

A Sunderland 2–1 selection loses if they win 1–0.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHalf-time/full-time adds another requirement. Sunderland/Sunderland needs a lead at the break followed by a win at full time. A comeback victory does not meet both conditions.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThink about how specific your prediction really is.

A low-scoring run might reflect strong defending, but it can also involve missed opportunities and good goalkeeping.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook at the opposition too. A team that usually attacks with several players may leave space Sunderland can use.
