Bournemouth vs Sunderland Prediction (18.10.2026)

On Thursday, Bournemouth won their second match in the Europa League, but they are still without a victory in the Premier League this season. After the first six rounds, they found themselves in the relegation zone. In their last match, they were defeated 1-5 away by Chelsea. They are definitely not the team from last season, which was very difficult to beat and a tricky opponent.

Sunderland, however, is also not at the level of last season and is just above Bournemouth in the standings. Like Bournemouth, they also won both of their matches in Europe, but unlike the hosts, they have one victory in the league. That win was at home against Fulham. Currently, Sunderland has three consecutive losses in the Premier League, although they were against the top three teams in the standings. Both teams have scored in all of Sunderland's away games so far.

I will simply look for Bournemouth's first victory. Sunderland is also not starting very well and could be overcome by the hosts in this case.
