Sunderland aims for a third consecutive win as they host Everton, who seek to end a two-defeat run.
A win would move Sunderland to second in the Premier League, while a point would place them fourth. Everton, on the other hand, would rise to 12th with a victory, seven points above the relegation zone.
Regis Le Bris' side comes into this match after a 2-0 win over Wolves and a 2-1 triumph at Chelsea on October 25. Meanwhile, Everton suffered a 3-0 home defeat by Tottenham.
Notable players missing for Sunderland include Romaine Mundle due to a hamstring issue, and defenders Dennis Cirkin, Leo Hjelde, and Aji Alese.
