Fulham vs Sunderland Live Stream – Premier League

The Premier League calendar restarts with a compelling Matchday 12 fixture as Fulham hosts Sunderland at Craven Cottage. Scheduled for Saturday, November 22, 2025, this match pits two teams experiencing vastly different campaigns. Sunderland, recently promoted back to the top flight, have enjoyed a brilliant start and surprisingly sit in a Champions League spot (4th position) at this stage.

Their success has been built on a strong defensive structure and efficient attack under manager Régis Le Bris. Fulham, under long-serving manager Marco Silva, is languishing in 15th position, just one point above the relegation zone, having struggled to convert possession into points and suffering five defeats in their last seven matches across all competitions. This encounter is a crucial test of Fulham’s ability to utilize their powerful home advantage—where they have earned 91% of their points this season—against a high-flying, defensively resolute Sunderland side.

Match Details

This Saturday afternoon clash brings together a possession-heavy home side and a high-flying, counter-attacking visitor in the English capital.

Team Form and Analysis for Fulham

Premier League Performance and Home Reliance

Fulham currently sits in 15th position in the Premier League table with 11 points from 11 matches, a disappointing record of three wins, two draws, and six losses.

The Cottagers‘ recent form has been a major concern for Marco Silva, with the team losing four of their last five league games, including a 2-0 away defeat to Everton just before the international break. Their season has been characterized by an alarming inability to win away from home, as they remain one of only four Premier League sides yet to secure an away victory. However, their saving grace has been their form at Craven Cottage, where they have won three matches, including a recent 3-0 home victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers. They have earned an exceptional 91% of their total league points at home, the highest ratio in the division. The team will be forced to contend with injuries to key striker Rodrigo Muniz and defender Antonee Robinson, along with the suspension of midfielder Saša Lukić for this critical fixture.

Key Player: Alex Iwobi

Midfielder/Forward Alex Iwobi stands out as a crucial creative and goal-scoring threat for Fulham. The Nigerian international has provided one goal and two assists in the league this season, leading the team in chances created. In a match where Fulham will need to break down a compact and well-organized Sunderland defence, Iwobi’s ability to take on defenders, link play between the midfield and attack, and deliver decisive passes or shots from wide areas will be absolutely vital. His experience and technical composure will be essential in navigating the tactical challenges presented by the visiting side.

Team Form and Analysis for Sunderland

Premier League Campaign and Surprise Top-Four Position

Sunderland currently occupies an impressive 4th position in the Premier League table with 19 points from 11 matches, an excellent record of five wins, four draws, and two losses.

The Black Cats, under the guidance of Head Coach Régis Le Bris, have enjoyed a dream start to their return to the Premier League, showcasing a resilient defensive unit that has conceded only 10 goals all season—one of the best records in the league. Their recent form has been strong, with notable results including a 2-1 away victory against Chelsea and a highly competitive 2-2 home draw against Arsenal just before the international break. Sunderland’s success is rooted in a compact, low defensive block and a quick, efficient counter-attack, which is particularly well-suited to frustrating possession-heavy teams like Fulham. They remain one of the most in-form teams in the league and will be focused on avoiding defeat to consolidate their improbable top-four standing heading into the busy festive period.

Key Player: Wilson Isidor

Striker Wilson Isidor is the most prolific forward for Sunderland, leading the team with four goals in the Premier League this season. The French striker has been instrumental in translating Sunderland’s solid defensive work into critical goals on the break. Known for his pace and directness, Isidor’s primary role will be to provide an out-ball for the midfield and to apply pressure to the Fulham centre-backs. His finishing ability and threat in transition will be the key component of Sunderland’s attacking strategy at Craven Cottage, as the Black Cats look to exploit spaces left by the advancing Fulham full-backs.

Head-to-Head Record between the Teams

The historical competitive record slightly favours Sunderland, but the Premier League results have been highly unpredictable and often high-scoring.

The two teams have faced each other 20 times in the Premier League era, with Fulham holding a slight edge with eight wins to Sunderland’s five. However, recent Premier League clashes at Craven Cottage have favoured the visitors, with Sunderland winning their last two top-flight visits to Fulham, including a crushing 4-1 victory in January 2014. The last meeting between the two sides was an FA Cup fourth-round replay in February 2023, which Fulham narrowly won 3-2 at the Stadium of Light. The overall history suggests that while Fulham has the home advantage, Sunderland has demonstrated an ability to turn up for big matches against them.

Players to Watch

Fulham

• Harry Wilson (Forward): The Welsh international provides quality delivery and a significant threat from set-pieces. With two goals this season, his left-footed shots and ability to create chances from wide areas will be a critical tool for Fulham in breaking down the compact Sunderland block.
• Calvin Bassey (Defender): The centre-back provides pace and physicality at the back. He will need to be exceptionally alert to manage the threat of Wilson Isidor on the counter-attack, and his composure in possession will be essential for starting Fulham’s patient build-up play.

Sunderland

• Granit Xhaka (Midfielder): The experienced captain is the anchor in the Sunderland midfield. His tactical intelligence, discipline, and exceptional passing range are crucial for both shielding the defence and launching quick transitions. His duel in the centre of the park will be vital to deciding the flow of the game.
• Daniel Ballard (Defender): The central defender is the leader of the Black Cats‘ strong defensive unit. His positioning, aerial dominance, and commitment to winning the ball back are key reasons for Sunderland’s excellent goals-conceded record. He will be tasked with neutralizing the movement of Raúl Jiménez and Danny Welbeck.

Prediction

This match is a classic contrast of styles: Fulham’s desire for dominance in possession versus Sunderland’s disciplined, counter-attacking efficiency. Fulham’s record at Craven Cottage is a major plus, but their recent form is concerning, and they are missing key personnel. Sunderland, riding high in the Champions League places, is full of confidence, defensively solid, and boasts a striker in Wilson Isidor who consistently finds the net. The match is likely to be tight and low-scoring, with Sunderland’s organization proving a tough test. While Fulham will push hard for the win, the Black Cats‘ resolve and clinical nature on the break suggest they will leave London with at least a point.
