Ladbrokes and Coral are rightfully considered two of the most influential bookmakers in the UK as they are always keen to invest on British football. Two new deals have been announced by the Ladbrokes Coral Group which will continue the betting partnership with Sunderland AFC. Although the "black cats" were relegated from the Premier League, Coral will provide to the "Stadium of Light" match day betting service in every Championship and FA Cup game for the 2017-18 season.

Commenting on the partnership, Coral PR Director Simon Clare, said: “We are thrilled at Coral to be establishing such a strong UK partnership with Sunderland AFC and we would like to wish everyone connected to the Club, especially all its passionate and dedicated supporters, the very best of luck for the season ahead."
