Sunderland vs Fulham: match statistics
Sunderland are in significantly better home form with 54% of home matches won and an impressive goal difference of +11 at their own stadium. The hosts concede only 0.77 goals per game on average in home matches and keep a clean sheet in 38% of games, which demonstrates a solid defence. Fulham, however, perform very poorly away with just 23% wins, 62% losses, and a negative goal difference of -11, conceding as many as 1.85 goals per away game on average. The form of both teams in the last five matches is identical (1.2 points per game); however, Sunderland's advantage in home games and Fulham's weakness away tilt the scales in favour of the hosts. Additionally, Sunderland have a better shot conversion rate (15% vs 9%) and are less likely to finish a match without scoring (15% vs 31% for Fulham away), which increases their chances of scoring goals and winning.
