\"Arsenal<\/p>\n

They face something of a banana skin as the Black Cats take to north London. Sunderland have been the surprise package of this Premier League season, and sit eighth midway through their first season back in the top flight.<\/p>\n

Their results have faltered somewhat of late, though, winning just two of their last nine outings, and have their work cut out for them if they are to get back to form here.<\/p>\n

Date, kick-off time and venue<\/p>\n

Arsenal vs Sunderland is scheduled for a 3pm GMT kick-off on Saturday, February 7, 2026.<\/p>\n

The match will take place at the Emirates Stadium in north London.<\/p>\n

Arsenal vs Sunderland team news<\/p>\n

Mikel Arteta is sweating over a handful of injuries, chief among them Bukayo Saka, who is expected to remain on the sidelines until the end of the month with a hip injury.<\/p>\n

Martin Odegaard has not featured in either of Arsenal\u2019s last two matches and was not in the squad at all to face Chelsea, with Arteta revealing he has a \u201clittle niggle.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Spaniard said he hopes his captain can play a part against the Black Cats: \u201cLet\u2019s see if he\u2019s available for the weekend [against Sunderland], hopefully.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mikel Merino and Max Dowman will both miss out with foot and ankle injuries, respectively. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Granit Xhaka will miss out for Sunderland despite making positive progress in his recovery from an ankle injury.<\/p>\n

Arthur Masuaku, Bertrand Traore and January signing Jocelin Ta Bi are weeks away from making a matchday squad.<\/p>\n

Arsenal vs Sunderland prediction<\/p>\n

Many of Arsenal\u2019s recent performances have been less than perfect, but they have developed a remarkable grit and desire to grind out ugly wins.<\/p>\n

Through a hectic winter calendar, they have made the most of their squad depth and pulled away atop the Premier League. Sunderland, meanwhile, have let their form fade after an injury to captain Granit Xhaka.<\/p>\n

Add into the equation the Black Cats\u2019 dreadful form away from home, and this match has the makings of a routine win for Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Head to head (h2h) history and results<\/p>\n

Sunderland come into this match chasing a first win over Arsenal since 2012, and a first away from home since 2002.<\/p>\n
