Everton vs Sunderland Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.90 expected goals for Everton and 1.05 for Sunderland, a combined total of 2.95.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Everton win, at 57.2%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 55% and over 2.5 goals at 57%.

A 57% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
