Liverpool vs Sunderland Prediction and Betting Tips for the Premier League showdown, scheduled for Wednesday, December 03, 2025, at 20:15 GMT. The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports and NOW TV from the legendary Anfield. In this article, you’ll find Premier League Predictions and betting insights from XpertStats experts. The Reds come in after a steady 2-0 win at West Ham, while Sunderland pulled off a stunning 3-2 comeback over Bournemouth that sent shockwaves through the league.

• Liverpool have won their last 12 Premier League games against promoted sides.
• Sunderland are unbeaten in their last three away matches.
• Mohamed Salah has scored eight goals in his last seven league games against promoted teams.
• Both teams are near full strength for Wednesday’s clash at Anfield.

Liverpool have rediscovered some rhythm under Arne Slot, though it’s been a bumpy road. The 2-0 victory at the London Stadium brought calm after three straight defeats, with goals from Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo sealing the deal. It wasn’t flashy, but it was necessary. Slot’s men are still chasing the European places, sitting just a few points shy of Chelsea and City. Anfield, however, has always been their fortress, the Reds have won 26 of their last 28 home matches against promoted sides. That’s a jaw-dropping record. Still, the question lingers: can Slot’s side stay consistent?

Mohamed Salah might return to the starting lineup, and you can feel the buzz around it. The Egyptian king has scored eight in his last seven games against newly promoted clubs, not bad for someone some thought was fading. Liverpool’s average of 1.67 goals scored per match and 83% of their games producing over 1.5 goals suggests they rarely play dull football. Yet, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per match keeps things interesting, and the Both Teams to Score trend (50%) hints that the Reds can leak one even when they dominate.

Sunderland, meanwhile, are writing a fresh chapter under Régis Le Bris. Their thrilling comeback against Bournemouth was pure Premier League chaos, the kind fans live for. Despite having scored only 0.5 goals per match on average this season, they’ve shown fight and spirit in every fixture. The Black Cats have been compact defensively too, conceding just one goal per game. Away from home, they keep matches tight, perhaps too tight, with only nine total goals seen in their six away fixtures. Still, you can sense belief growing in the camp. Can they finally shake off that 42-year winless streak at Anfield? Hard to say, but you wouldn’t rule out a surprise.

For all their defensive discipline, Sunderland will have to endure Anfield’s pressure cooker atmosphere. Liverpool average 10.83 corners per match, that’s relentless attacking volume and 67% of their games pass over 10.5 corners. Sunderland’s own corners average (8.67) shows they aren’t passengers either. Expect a physical clash too: both sides hover around 20 fouls per match and pick up 3–4 cards on average. That said, one thing’s certain, it’ll be loud, fast, and emotional under the lights in Liverpool. For more insights and bold Premier League Predictions, stay tuned to XpertStats.
