The Black Cats offered nothing going forward and defensively they looked a mess with Kieren Richardson in particular looking very vulnerable at left back. Steve Bruce's side lost that match 2-1 and they are now being talked of as potential relegation candidates this season and that seems justified. Sunderland's only victory this season was a 4-0 win over Stoke City but the Potters were playing that game after a gruelling trip to Kiev in the Europa League and were always likely to struggle.A good win is, therefore, needed to placate the Wearside supporters and Bruce will be going all out to claim it on Saturday when West Brom are the visitors to the Stadium of Light. It is 5/4, at bet365, that his side claim all three points but whether the Black Cats can be backed or not is debatable.On one hand there is the simple fact that West Brom are awful at the moment. The Baggies have one point less than their opponents and have managed to score just three goals all season. They have failed to find the net in three of their last four Premier League matches and the attack seems to completely lack belief.Albion are 12/5, at Victor Chandler, to beat Sunderland on Saturday but, as bad as the hosts are, the visitors just don't look like scoring and so the Black Cats should at least manage a draw (12/5, bet365).It is, however, impossible to guarantee more than that and at the odds it makes more sense to simply back under 2.5 goals, at 5/6 with Victor Chandler. Neither side is dependable and this bet covers a narrow win for Sunderland and also a low scoring draw, which wouldn't be out of the question.RecommendationOver/Under 2.5 Goals - Under (5/6, Victor Chandler) Read our Betfair review £20 risk-free bet plus £1000 cashback Like Like Post to wall 181 Reads All Football News Recent Football Articles Goal-line Technology 12/1 To Debut In 2012-13 Premier League24 May 2012Goal-line technology could be introduced to the Premier League next season, according to Ladbrokes.
