Arsenal Face Huge Sunderland Premier League Test

The resilience of Sunderland premier league will be on the centre stage this Saturday at the emirates. The Gunners are presently top of the table by half a dozen points. This is a big but weak gap over Manchester City. Recently Mikel Arteta disclosed that his team members had scheduled this title attack many months before the season started.

The London side has been a runner-up in the past three consecutive years. The experience has made them apparent hard. Arteta states that his players have covered all the external noise. They are day by day taking this title race. But they cannot spare any relapses against a Sunderland team that is dangerous.

The Black Cats are at the moment on the 8th place. They have been the unlikely heroes of the season following their promotion. Regis Le Bris has developed a very strong team that could hardly be beaten. They have already drawn Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City. Amazingly, they have not lost a single game in twelve matches at home.

During his Friday press conference, Arteta exuded a lot of praise towards the visitors. He used Sunderland as a very competitive and well-coached team. He is aware that they have a very distinct identity. They are fine at carrying the game to the highest level of competitor. Arsenal will be required to perform to their best in order to get all the three points.

The Emirates will have an electric atmosphere. It is beginning to make fans think that this is their year. But this is a pivotal clash as Arteta had warned. Sunderland have demonstrated that they are able to pierce the dreams of the giants. Arsenal will need to play their part professionally so as to remain on top.
