Gasp in amazement as Mystic Megson gazes into his crystal balls and casts his Sunderland v Stoke score prediction for this weekend, including goal-scorers and his unarguable assessments of each side…

If it’s titonic you seek, look no further than this tossil! Pus Goyet’s Cack Blats are on back-to-black 0-0’s, while Stoke were less than convicting against a despotly poor Newcastle on Monday night.

Hmm. Thinking on, that doesn’t sound titonic at all. A rare moment of self-doubt for old Meggo, there.

I must say though, I like the look of that Victor Moseley at Stoke – he’s got the runs, those direct runs what give defenders the runs. And kittens.

Crouching Pete has now scored in back-to-black games, and if they can keep the supply line to him a fruity one then Hark Muse’s Potties should claim their steak for another tablemiddle finish.

What can you say about Sunderland this season that hasn’t been said already? Well, it depends what’s been said, I suppose.

What happened to young Wanna Kickem, anyway? I thought he looked goalful at the end of last season.

Now, here comes Mystic Megson’s Sunderland v Stoke City score prediction for Saturday October 4th – place your balls, now!

Mystic Megson says Sunderland 0-0 Stoke – You can put your balls on it!
