To build a prediction for the Sunderland - Arsenal match, scheduled for 12 September 2026, several key factors could influence the outcome. Sunderland have played 50 matches, in which they won 16 of them, drew 14 times and lost 20 matches. Arsenal, having played 50 matches, won 33 times, drew 11 matches and lost 6 defeats. In the league, Sunderland average 1 goals scored per game and 1.4 conceded. Arsenal average 1.9 scored and 0.8 conceded. These sides last met on 6 February 2026 at Arsenal's ground, where the home side came out on top.
I don't think it will be a great football match. Arsenal will dominate possession and will try to score. But Sunderland can also fight back: 1-1, 1-2 are accurate-score options. It could also be 0-1, of course, or even 1-0 with Arsenal receiving a red card, let's say.
