Sunderland vs Fulham: Preview
Sunderland will be aiming to put their opening-weekend disappointment behind them in their first Premier League home game of the 2026/27 season.
The Black Cats fell to a late winner in their 2-1 defeat at Ipswich Town and the Stadium of Light is the ideal place to get back on track, with Regis Le Bris' side losing just four times on home soil on their way to a seventh-place finish last term.
Sunderland have had a busy week in the transfer market, signing French defender Dayann Methalie for £25.6m from Toulouse and Royal Antwerp midfielder Jules Ahoka in an £8.6m deal.
Otherwise, the Black Cats' starting lineup will once again look very similar to the one that finished last season, with right-back Thomas Meunier the only summer signing in the XI that faced Ipswich.

Fulham make the long trip to the North East at the end of a busy opening weekend of the season, losing 3-2 at home to Chelsea in the Premier League on Monday night before beating AFC Wimbledon 3-0 at Craven Cottage three days later in the Carabao Cup.
The latter game saw Alvaro Arbeloa claim his first win as Fulham manager and both matches would have given the Spaniard reasons to be optimistic, with summer signing Gonzalo Garcia scoring twice, rising star Josh King impressing against the Blues and striker Rodrigo Muniz scoring his first goal for more than a year.
However, the Cottagers looked shaky defensively against Chelsea and will have to tighten up against Sunderland if they want to emulate their 3-1 win at the Stadium of Light in February.
That was one of just four away wins Fulham claimed in the league last term, so a victory in their first road trip of the new campaign would be an excellent start.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Sunderland 2-1 Fulham
The Cottagers' busy week may catch up with them, with the Black Cats getting eight days' rest between the Ipswich game and this Sunday-afternoon clash.
