Sunday’s 2pm kick‑off takes us to the south coast as Bournemouth host Sunderland, with the Cherries chasing their first league win of the season and the Black Cats trying to translate their European form into domestic points.

Now, let’s take a closer look at some Premier League odds and betting angles for Sunday’s fixture:

Bournemouth remain one of just three Premier League sides yet to win this season (D3, L3), but Thursday night’s 3–0 Europa League victory at the Vitality should inject some much‑needed confidence into Marco Rose’s squad.
They return to the south coast looking to respond to last weekend’s defeat against Liverpool, and it’s worth noting they haven’t lost back‑to‑back home league games since April 2025.
The concern, however, is this fixture. Bournemouth failed to beat Sunderland in either meeting last season (D1, L1), and they haven’t claimed a home league win over the Black Cats since 2015. The Cherries are 21/20 with William Hill to finally break that run.

Sunderland stunned the league last season, finishing seventh in their first campaign back in the top flight and earning a Europa League place that nobody predicted.
The challenge now is balancing Europe with domestic demands. Despite a perfect record in Europe so far, the Black Cats are winless in their last four Premier League matches, losing three in a row.
Their away form has dipped too: just one win from six league trips (D2, L3). If punters believe Sunderland can translate their European momentum into Premier League points, they’re 12/5 with William Hill to win on the south coast.
