Sunderland U21 vs Liverpool U21 Betting Tips: BTTS
Last season, Sunderland Under-21s were the undisputed surprise package of the Premier League 2 playoffs, making a deep run in the competition before stumbling at the final hurdle where they were outplayed 3-1 by Tottenham Under-21s.
The Black Cats would certainly welcome a repeat of last year's impressive campaign, and their opening pair of matches show promise as they first held Newcastle U21 to a late 1-1 draw before edging out Middlesbrough U21 in a five-goal thriller that ended 3-2.
The red-and-white-clad squad will aim to adopt another aggressive attacking approach in Monday's contest as they seek to extend their home winning streak to five, having found the back of the net at least twice in five of their last seven matches in their own backyard.
Although their defense has been far from reliable with just one clean sheet in their last 10 home games, Sunderland U21 will be confident that their attack can shine against a Liverpool U21 side that has had a disappointing start to the 2024-25 campaign.
Since strolling to an emphatic 3-1 triumph over Manchester City U21s in the Premier League 2 curtain-raiser, the Reds have experienced a sharp decline in form, having lost each of their last three matches across all competitions while shipping a staggering 11 goals.
However, there are troubling signs that Liverpool U21's losing streak could extend here, as their last three head-to-head encounters with Sunderland U21 have seen them fall short, including a 1-2 defeat in the regular season last term.
But, the young Reds should not be written off at all, because they have enough potential to upset anyone, including the Black Cats. Overall, it’s a tough match to call, but since both teams looking easily penetrated at the back, we imagine Monday's contest at Eppleton Colliery Welfare will be goal-rich in what is expected to be a spirited affair.

Sunderland U21 team news
Elias Lenz's availability for Monday's clash is uncertain, having been substituted just before halftime in the last match against Middlesbrough U21, with Caden Kelly potentially stepping in for him.
Provided there are no additional injury concerns apart from Lenz, boss Graeme Murty is expected to field the same side that secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Middlesbrough last week.

The 17-year-old midfielder Kieran Morrison is a major doubt for this match after missing two consecutive games due to a late injury sustained during the second matchday of Premier League 2 against Leicester U21.
Coach Barry Lewtas, unhappy with his team's recent performances, will look to make some changes to the starting lineup in hopes of improving results.
