Sunderland vs Aston Villa – 6 February 2027, Premier League: H2H, form and match facts

Sunderland host Aston Villa in what looks like a crucial clash for both sides, with the Black Cats sitting 14th on four points after a win, a draw and two defeats, while Villa languish at the foot of the table on a solitary point from a draw and three losses. The hosts have scored three times but conceded five, a goal difference that will need to improve if they hope to climb out of the relegation zone. Villa, meanwhile, have found the net only once all season while letting in seven, underscoring the defensive frailties they must address to avoid a further slide. Historically the two have met only a handful of times, offering little precedent, but Sunderland’s home advantage and their slightly better record could prove decisive as both clubs vie for their first three points of the campaign.
