REF’s picks

Brighton arrive in strong early-season form and hold the tactical tools to break down Sunderland away from home. Backing the visitors at 2.38 offers solid value given their superior attacking depth.

1. 1Brighton sit comfortably in the upper reaches of the table with impressive recent results against top opposition.
2. 2Sunderland have struggled for defensive consistency, conceding heavily in recent outings against elite sides.
3. 3An extensive injury list for Brighton could disrupt their rhythm and leave them vulnerable on the counter-attack.
