Sunderland's 2026-27 season

Every club in the division is played twice, home and away, so the schedule below is the whole league seen from one side of it.

The season opens away at Ipswich Town on Aug 22, and finishes at home against Manchester City on May 30. The heaviest stretch is 3 matches in seven days, from Nov 29 to Dec 5.

Kick-off times are shown in your own timezone rather than local time in England — detected automatically, and overridable in the “Times in” control above. Matches whose time the broadcasters have not yet fixed show a date and a ? instead; those are settled about five or six weeks ahead, and a match can move day as well as time when it happens. To see how Sunderland's run compares with the rest of the division, the full grid puts all 20 clubs side by side.

Frequently asked questions

When do Sunderland play next?

Why do some Sunderland matches have no kick-off time?

The Premier League publishes its schedule a season ahead but confirms kick-off times only about five or six weeks in advance, after the broadcasters pick their matches — which can also move a match between Saturday, Sunday and Monday. 22 of Sunderland's 38 matches are still waiting on that, and are shown with a date but no time.

2 in a row, from Dec 12 to Dec 19. The longest away run is 2, from Dec 2 to Dec 5.
