Roy Keane lost it with Jamie Carragher score line prediction for Leeds vs Sunderland

In a recent fiery exchange on Sky Sports or The Overlap podcast, Roy Keane reportedly lost his temper with Jamie Carragher over the latter’s prediction for the upcoming Premier League clash between Leeds United and Sunderland on December 28, 2025.Carragher, known for his bold and often pessimistic takes on underdogs, apparently forecasted a heavy defeat for one of the sides—widely interpreted as an “awful” low-scoring or one-sided result that underestimated the promoted teams’ resilience. Sources suggest he tipped a comfortable win for Sunderland (currently 6th in the table) over struggling Leeds (16th), possibly something like 3-0 or worse, dismissing Leeds’ recent unbeaten run and home form potential.Keane, the former Manchester United captain with a no-nonsense reputation and past ties to Sunderland as manager, erupted in defense of competitive balance. His outburst highlighted Carragher’s alleged bias or overly cautious predicting style, accusing him of undermining the spirit of newly promoted clubs like Leeds and Sunderland, who have both impressed this season despite challenges.The spat underscores their longstanding rivalry as pundits—Keane’s intensity clashing with Carragher’s analytical jabs. Fans on social media hailed Keane’s passion, while others mocked Carragher’s track record of wayward forecasts. With the match at the Stadium of Light looming, this pundit drama has only heightened anticipation for what promises to be a pivotal relegation six-pointer.
