The Matchday 10 Premier League encounter between Sunderland and Everton will take place on November 3 at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland vs. Everton: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Sunderland
Regis Le Bris's side has surprisingly climbed to a high 4th place after a quarter of the Premier League matches. While a favorable schedule initially helped their rise, their recent win against Chelsea away, with a score of 2-1, proved their position among the top four is no fluke. The victory was hard-fought, with Sunderland scoring the decisive goal in the 93rd minute.
- The club has not lost in 6 of their last 7 Premier League matches (4 wins and 2 draws).
- Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 7 of Sunderland's last 9 league games.
- The team remains unbeaten at home in this Premier League season – 3 wins and 1 draw.
Predicted lineup for Sunderland (5-3-2)
Robin Rufs – Tray Ham, Nordi Mukiele, Lutsharel Geertruida, Daniel Ballard, Reinildo Mandava – Granit Xhaka, Noa Sadiki, Enzo Le Fee – Bertrand Traore, Wilson Isidor.
Everton
The Liverpool side failed to score in two consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since April, suffering two defeats in a row. They lost 0-2 away to Manchester City and were then thrashed 0-3 at home by Tottenham. Notably, in their last 6 league matches, David Moyes's team has secured only 1 win (2 draws and 3 losses). The team has dropped to 14th place, but they maintain a comfortable 6-point gap from the relegation zone.
- The club has not lost in 9 of their last 13 Premier League matches (6 wins and 3 draws).
- Exactly two or three goals have been scored in Everton's last 5 league games.
- Everton's uncompromising away run in the Premier League stands at 9 matches – 4 wins and 5 losses.
Predicted lineup for Everton (4-2-3-1)
Jordan Pickford – Michael Keane, James Tarkowski, Jake O'Brien, Vitaliy Mykolenko – Idrissa Gueye, James Garner – Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Jack Grealish, Iliman Ndiaye – Beto Gomes.
Defenders Nathan Patterson and Jarrad Branthwaite are sidelined due to injury.

Sunderland vs. Everton: Match Prediction
Bookmakers remain unimpressed by Regis Le Bris's side, giving a slight edge to the visitors in this matchup. This is despite Sunderland being in the Champions League zone while Everton is hovering near the relegation zone. I believe this skepticism towards Sunderland should be capitalized on, opting for a handicap in their favor.
The hosts are in excellent form, having lost only once in their last 6 Premier League matches. Furthermore, they remain unbeaten at home this season, conceding just two goals in 4 home games. Everton is experiencing a minor crisis, failing to win in 5 of their last 6 Premier League games this autumn. Additionally, Everton has not scored more than 1 goal in 5 of their last 6 league encounters.
My prediction – Sunderland with a handicap (0)
