Oxford United and Sunderland in their last five games have had the record of cautions cards given due to their aggresive performances. Therefore, since both have not been in their best performance, I expect an aggressive play in this match, while I expect more than 3 cautions cards to be given. However, since both teams were weak in their defensive play lately. I expect both teams to see the net and score more than two goals.
