Everton and Sunderland are set to face off in what looks like a very tight Premier League match. Everton have been struggling to find wins lately, with draws against tough opponents and a recent loss, but they have been scoring goals regularly. Sunderland are also in a tricky spot, with two draws and two losses in their last five away games, though they did have a big 5-0 win recently. Their only previous meeting this season ended in a 1-1 draw, which suggests both sides are quite evenly matched.

Looking at recent form, both teams have been involved in high-scoring games, with Everton drawing 2-2 and 3-3 in their last two matches. Sunderland have also had some high-scoring encounters, like their 4-3 loss. Given the close nature of their last meeting and the fact that both teams are struggling to win consistently, this match could easily go either way or end in another draw. The smartest call here is that Everton will avoid defeat, so a draw or a home win is the most likely outcome.
