Manchester United will be aiming to recover from a 3-1 loss to Brentford when they take on Sunderland in the Premier League round 7. The Red Devils are eyeing their third consecutive win at their Old Trafford, but Saturday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for Ruben Amorim’s troops. Talented midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is pushing for his first start of the season, while both Lisandro Martinez and Noussair Mazraoui remain in the recovery room.
The Black Cats, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest. Sunderland, though, were more than fortunate to keep a clean sheet in the City Ground triumph and that is the main reason why we are going to place our bets on Manchester United. Both Leo Fuhr Hjelde and Habib Diarra are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
This Premier League match will be played on Saturday 4 October 2025 at 15:00.
