Arsenal vs Sunderland live: Latest team news and line-ups from Premier League
Feb 07 2026 13:10 · Par Michael Jones · 89 Lectures
Arsenal welcome Sunderland to the Emirates Stadium this afternoon looking to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to nine points.
The Gunners have had a fantastic week following their 4-0 mauling of Leeds last Saturday. Their closest title rivals, Manchester City and Aston Villa, both dropped points thanks to a 2-2 draw with Spurs and a 1-0 loss to Brentford respectively before Mikel Arteta ’s men swept Chelsea aside to reach the Carabao Cup final during the week.
That place Arsenal on course for an unprecedented quadruple and they can move one step closer to securing the Premier League trophy should they defeat Sunderland today.
The Black Cats started the season superbly following their promotion from the Championship and currently sit eighth in the table just five points off the top four. Qualifying for a place in Europe would be a fitting reward for such a fine season but Regis Le Bris’ men need to maintain their momentum after beating Burnley 3-0 last time out.
