Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin says they're up for any fight against Sunderland.

The Black Cats head to Merseyside on the back of two very different results, following up a 4-0 away victory over Crystal Palace with a defeat to Swansea City by the same scoreline last time out.

Schneiderlin told evertonfc.com: “They are fighting for their future and you can see that Sunderland have some ups and downs – they won 4-0 at Palace, they lose 4-0 against Southampton – so you can expect hot and cold from them.

“But we are going to try to exploit their weakness, exploit what they don't do very well and for our part, even if we don't fight for relegation, we fight for something.

“We have to fight for something and we will - to be as high as possible in the table and to give us a European place at the end of this season."
