Arsenal preview: Going for the quadruple
A late Kai Havertz goal assured Arsenal of a 4-2 aggregate defeat of Chelsea in the semi-finals of the EFL Cup in midweek and there is now the more realistic possibility of the Gunners fighting to win a first ever quadruple.
The Gunners have extended their lead at the top of the Premier League table to six points in the last week or so, too, with a 4-0 hammering of Leeds United at Elland Road last weekend.
Sunderland preview: Impressive Sunderland
Sunderland come into this one on the back of an impressive 3-0 thumping of Burnley at the Stadium of Light last week, courtesy of an own goal from Axel Tuanzebe as well as strikes scored by Habib Diarra and Chemsdine Talbi.
That has lifted the Black Cats into the top eight ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures and Regis Le Bris’ Wearsiders are in an excellent position to potentially qualify for European competition.

Arsenal vs Sunderland prediction
Arsenal recovered from a shaky start to the year, which involved goalless draws with Liverpool and Nottingham Forest as well as a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United, and they are now clear again at the top-of-the-table. Sunderland will head to north London confident that they can be stubborn to play against for the Gunners but a lower scoring home win still appears to be the likeliest outcome for this one.
