Plymouth Argyle vs Sunderland Player To Watch - Eliezer Mayenda

With Sunderland’s great form this season all of their players have been standout. However it is Eliezer Mayenda that has impressed us the most and who we think will have a big impact in this match.

Mayenda has played 4 games so far this season and has registered 2 goals and 2 assists. With at least 1 goal involvement each game we would expect him to create something again in this game. Especially against what is an incredibly weak Plymouth side.

Plymouth Argyle vs Sunderland Prediction

Coming into this game it is clear that Sunderland will be expected to win. They are on great form and playing good football while they are at it.

Plymouth on the other hand are greatly struggling. We would expect that to continue in this match.

Ultimately, it is hard to argue with our tipping experts who are backing Sunderland To Win at odds of 5/6 in this game. £10 having the potential to return up to £18.33.
