League Standings

Arsenal come into this fixture 6 points clear at the top of the Premier League. They've lost just once at home all season and ask a difficult task of Sunderland. A 4-0 win against Leeds in their lasy league games summed up what Arsenal are about. They are gunning for the league this year and are taken no prisoners along the way. The game ended all square in the reverse fixture as Arsenal struggled to break down the home side. This time looks set to be different.

Sunderland's away form has been inconsistent, and they face an uphill task in trying to take points from this fixture. Despite the challenging prospects, their determination and past performances against Arsenal indicate they can still pose a threat. They managed a point last time out with a 94th minute equaliser from Brobbey. Sunderland come into this fixture after a 3-0 routine win at home to Burnley and have all the momentum needed to try and cause an upset.
