Match Preview

Sunderland and Fulham are set to meet at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League on February 22, 2026 GMT.

With Sunderland placed 11th in the standings with 36 points and Fulham following closely in 12th with 34 points, this match presents an important opportunity for both teams to secure valuable points.

Sunderland has faced challenges recently, registering 3 losses in their last 6 matches across all leagues.

Meanwhile, Fulham has struggled in away matches, suffering 3 losses in their previous 6 Premier League away fixtures, emphasizing the difficulty of playing on the road for the visiting team.

In their recent head-to-head clashes in the Premier League, Sunderland has faltered, losing 3 out of their last 6 matchups against Fulham.

The upcoming game is poised to be a closely contested battle as both teams look to edge past each other in the league standings.

Prediction: Sunderland to win with a probability of 45%.

Sunderland have gone off the boil in recent weeks with four Premier League defeats in their last six games leaving them in the bottom half of the table - which is a rarity this season.

The Black Cats' last top-flight home victory over Fulham was courtesy of a Kenwyne Jones winner in January 2009.

Fulham are on a similar run of results and are just two points behind Sunderland in the Premier League with their own European hopes fading with every passing week.

The Whites are winless on their travels in 2026, collecting just one point from a possible 12 available, although that does include visits to both Manchester clubs.
