Match analysis
Strip out one 5-1 rout and Sunderland's last five have been tight, low-scoring wins, the shape behind Superior's Under 3.5 pick for their League Cup tie with Hull City on 8 September at 1.35, rated 73 percent by the model. Hull City have matched that pattern from the other side, conceding more than once only once in the same stretch.
Three 1-0 and 2-0 wins outnumber the one blowout
Sunderland's five games have produced a 1-0, two 2-0s and a 2-1, with only a 5-1 midweek win breaking the pattern. Hull City have been just as tight at the other end, winning 1-0 and 2-0 of their own and drawing the other two 0-0 and 1-1. Strip out Sunderland's outlier and the pair average close to a goal and a half each, well shy of this line.
Hull City's defence has barely been opened up
Hull have conceded more than once in only one of their last five, a narrow 1-2 loss. A cup tie between a defence that has held that well and a home side whose scoring, once the anomaly is removed, sits in the same low range favours a tight total over a repeat blowout.
A repeat of Sunderland's 5-1 is what beats this
Under 3.5 loses at four goals or more, and Sunderland have already shown they can produce exactly that kind of scoreline once this month. If their front line finds the same space it did in that 5-1 win, or Hull's defence has an off night in front of an away crowd, the total clears with room to spare.
