Preview: Sunderland vs. Arsenal

Sunderland will be looking to move out of the relegation zone when they host Arsenal on Saturday afternoon.

Paolo Di Canio's side are yet to win a league match this season, having lost two and drawn one of their opening three games.

The Black Cats went into the international break off the back of a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Arsenal have won their last two Premier League games, including a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby two weeks ago.

Mesut Ozil is in line to make his Arsenal debut following his deadline-day transfer from Real Madrid.

Di Canio could hand debuts to new signings Fabio Borini and Andrea Dossena, while John O'Shea is suspended following his sending off against Palace.
