Tottenham Hotspur XI vs Sunderland – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Tottenham Hotspur travel to Sunderland today looking to end a 13-match winless run in the Premier League.

The Lilywhites sit just one point above the relegation zone following a heavy loss to Nottingham Forest. New manager Roberto De Zerbi oversaw his first training sessions after replacing Igor Tudor this week. Spurs are unbeaten in their last 15 league meetings against the Black Cats. They now search for their first top-flight victory of 2026.

Tottenham Hotspur team news

Roberto De Zerbi manages a squad hit by significant absentees for his inaugural match. Guglielmo Vicario is unavailable after undergoing hernia surgery recently. Consequently, Antonín Kinský is expected to make his League debut in goal.

Mohammed Kudus suffered a setback in his recovery and remains sidelined. James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Rodrigo Bentancur also remain ruled out with injuries.

Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven will anchor the defence at the Stadium of Light. In midfield, João Palhinha and Archie Gray will look to provide stability.

Notably, Richarlison leads the line as he chases his tenth league goal of the season. He could become the second Brazilian to reach double figures five times in the competition. Spurs have won 68% of their points on the road this term.
