Sunderland eye a continuation of their nothing short of impressive Premier League return as they host Everton in Monday night’s Gameweek 10 finale.
With either sides evenly matched in the odds, the Black Cats’ recent consistency makes the home side favourites at the Stadium of Light.
Sunderland seek to consolidate their solid start to the 2025/26 Premier League campaign when they host Everton in the final fixture of Gameweek 10 on Monday evening.
The Blacks Cats currently sit seventh in the standings after nine matches with Michael Beale’s side collecting 10 points from their last five outings while only losing twice since the start of the season.
As for Everton, under David Moyes, the Toffees have struggled to maintain momentum, managing ust one victory in their last five fixtures while losing three and drawing once.
Their consistency however has left them hovering near the relegation zone and will see this encounter as a crucial opportunity to reset.

Tight contest expected in the betting markets
Based on betway odds, the matchup is finely balanced, with both teams priced at 2.80 or the win, while a draw stands at 3.15. The market rather suggests a cagey affair, though SunderLand’s home form and defensive resilience give them a slight edge.

at 1.88. Sunderland have netted 11 goals and conceded only seven this season, compared to Everton’s nine goals and 12 conceded, further underscoring the hosts’ efficiency at both ends of the field.
A win for Sunderland could see them rise as high as second in the table, reflecting their remarkable adaptation to Premier League intensity. Everton, by contrast, need a positive result to ease early-season pressure and move clear of the bottom three.
