Sunderland vs Leeds prediction, odds and how to watch

Leeds and Manchester United played out a flat 1-1 draw at Elland Road, with Bryan Mbeumo's first-half goal cancelled out by Dominic Calvert-Lewin early in the second half. Neither side did enough to win it.

Bournemouth made light work of ten-man Sunderland at the Vitality, with goals from Marcus Tavernier and Evanilson securing a comfortable 2-0 win after Kevin Danso's red card in the 17th minute ended this one as a contest.

Sunderland won 2-1 away at Torreense in the UEFA Europa League, but Connor Maguire has questions about a side that had 22 shots and still needed a 90th-minute goal to seal it.

Sunderland have not won in five Premier League matches and are leaking goals at an alarming rate. Leeds arrive with draws to spare but precious little conviction.

Sunderland host Chelsea on Sunday having conceded ten goals in their last five Premier League matches. The visitors arrive unpredictable, leaky, and dangerous in equal measure.

Sunderland host Dinamo Zagreb in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday night, looking to back up their opening win and prove they belong at this level. The question is whether they have the desire to see it through.

Mikel Arteta says Arsenal's comeback win over Leeds proved his side had rediscovered the identity questioned after their Brighton defeat. But with Rice, Havertz and Konsa only just restored to fitness and Guimaraes and Timber dropped, the lineup tells a more uncertain story than the manager's confident framing suggests.
