◆ CheckLive verdict
Clear favorite — Sunderland U21
Sunderland are mired in a five-game winless streak, yet they dismantled Nottingham Forest 6-1 when these sides last met. Forest arrive on a two-game winning run, though. CheckLive's read still leans the hosts — a 64% lean, but not a commanding one.

Who will win between Sunderland U21 and Nottingham Forest U21?
CheckLive's read favours Sunderland U21, lifted by their 6-1 thrashing of Nottingham Forest U21 in February and a stronger mental edge. Forest's two-game winning run keeps this from being a confident pick.
Are Sunderland U21 favourites despite their poor form?
Narrowly, yes. Sunderland U21 are winless in five, yet CheckLive's read still favours them on the strength of February's 6-1 win over Nottingham Forest U21 and a clear edge in mentality. Forest arrive in better form.
Will both teams score in the PL2 opener?
Plausible. The H2H averages three goals a game and the last meeting ended 6-1. Sunderland's winless run has still produced goals and both defences are conceding freely, so BTTS looks live.
