What is at stake for Sunderland and Tottenham?

Tottenham are in real danger of getting relegated for the first time since 1977 this season and they have given De Zerbi just seven games to save them.

The former Brighton boss returns to the Premier League after a volatile spell in charge of Marseille, where he guided them to a second-place finish in his first season before being sacked midway through his second with the club fourth in Ligue 1 and eliminated from the Champions League.

De Zerbi takes charge of a side that has not won a league game in 2026 and is struggling with an injury crisis, with the likes of James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Mohammed Kudus currently sidelined.

Sunderland, meanwhile, head into this game off the back of a huge 2-1 win over rivals Newcastle United in the Tyne-Wear derby.

However, Regis Le Bris's side have lost their last three home games and will be keen to avoid a fourth consecutive home league defeat for the first time since September 2017.

Sunderland are just three points off seventh-placed Brentford and there is still a chance that they could qualify for Europe this season.
