Sunderland will host Everton at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League on Wednesday evening which will be live on Sky Sports 1 and we’ve got three football betting tips for the 7.45pm kick-off.
A huge game for Sunderland this week as this game in hand gives them the chance to secure top flight football for the Black Cats next season. However, for Everton it seems another meaningless game for the deflated squad who are struggling this season under Roberto Martinez.
Sunderland vs Everton Predictions
The bookies are well aware of what the three points will do for Sunderland as they go into the game 4/6 favourites which seems short for a team in a relegation battle. However, Sunderland have been a tough team to beat since big Sam took over and have a collected plenty of draws along the way where they haven’t been able to see the game out for the win.
For Everton, things seem to be going from bad to worse. The league has been a write off season for a while now and since the FA Cup semi-final exit, the fans have been on the managers back much more as it looks almost certain that he will be a free agent this summer. Five away games without a win in the league really does go in Sunderland’s favour.
Sunderland have only suffered one defeat in their last nine PL games which doesn’t seem like a team who are fighting relegation. However, as mentioned earlier they struggle to turn draws into wins but I think they will get the job done tonight when it really matters. They will desperately want to avoid the battle going down to the last game and they have a chance to do this on Wednesday.
My first Premier League prediction for Sunderland vs Everton is going to be Sunderland to win and under 3.5 goals. It is rare that Sunderland concede more than a goal in their games putting the Chelsea game at weekend aside and I can’t see another 3-2 in this one. The best odds for this are currently 13/8 with Stan James.

Although I do fancy Sunderland to take the much needed three points, there’s a good chance that it won’t be straight forward for them. An early Everton goal would give Sunderland an even bigger task just like they did against Chelsea. Although Lukaku has gone quiet over the last few weeks I think it’s more due to the team performance than him as an individual.
My second Sunderland vs Everton betting tip is going to be Lukaku to score first. I think that despite his quiet patch he will want to sign the season off well before heading over to France for the Euro’s as Belgium's main man upfront. The best odds for this are currently 7/1 with Paddy Power which seems a huge price for a leading Premier League striker.
LUKAKU TO SCORE FIRST – 7/1 Paddy Power.

Sunderland are going to be more than willing to dig in and graft on Wednesday night if that’s what it takes to have top flight football next season. I think this game could be a physical match up especially with the Sunderland defence having a handful with Lukaku. Younes Kaboul received a booking at the weekend and it wouldn’t surprise me if he picked up another one this week with the task at hand.
My third Sunderland vs Everton prediction is Kaboul to be shown a card. I think this is a generous price considering he is a centre back playing against a striker who has caused problems for a number of defences over the season. The best odds are currently 29/10 with Bet Victor.
KABOUL TO BE BOOKED – 29/10 Bet Victor.
