Another highlight of Matchday 11 will take place at the Stadium of Light, where Sunderland face Arsenal.

After ten matches, Sunderland surprisingly occupy fourth place in the Premier League table, having earned five wins, three draws, and two losses. They even had the chance to move up to second, but failed to defeat Everton at home — that match ended 1–1.

Arsenal continue to collect points with impressive consistency. The London side have won five league games in a row, and if we add their Champions League results, their winning form becomes even more remarkable. At times, it seems Arsenal manage matches so calmly that they even conserve energy without losing control.

Prediction for the Sunderland vs Arsenal

For the first time in a while, Arsenal face an opponent in strong form who will also have the support of a home crowd. Sunderland are undoubtedly capable of challenging the Premier League leaders — but it may not be enough to take points.

I continue to believe in Arsenal’s stability and quality. My recommendation here is to back an Arsenal win.
