English Premier League

This weekend has been on the hob since the day the Premier League fixtures were released, just sitting there, simmering, waiting to be turned up to the rolling boil of the past week. Sunderland and Newcastle United are proper rivals, with all the good and bad that come with it, and the Stadium of Light is going to be bouncing on Sunday. Read on as FourFourTwo brings you all the information on how to watch Sunderland vs Newcastle United online, on TV, and from anywhere.

If your success in The Pre-Match Poser was a fantastic start to the day, we have more for those whose stamina for trivia persists,with a brilliant collection of challenges covering the biggest financial deals, the greatest player in history, and the cult heroes who make the Premier League what it is, thanks to Kwizly. We begin by looking at the financial firepower of the last half-decade. Can you name the biggest signings of the 2020s so far?

Manchester United's highly-rated young midfielder, Kobbie Mainoo, has become a key player in the rumour mill due to a lack of consistent game time at Old Trafford. Major European clubs, including Chelsea, are closely monitoring his situation. Mainoo is reportedly eager for a move to secure more game time to bolster his chances of making the England squad for the 2026 World Cup. He is actively seeking a fresh challenge to accelerate his development.

Paris Saint-Germain held off a late fightback from Metz to win 3-2 at Stade Saint-Symphorien and go top in Ligue 1. Goncalo Ramos and Quentin Ndjantou gave PSG a two-goal cushion before Jessy Deminguet halved the deficit, but Desire Doue's strike shortly after the hour mark proved to be crucial as Giorgi Tsitaishvili set up a nervy finish. The reigning champions

I knew I'd be asked more about our opponents than about Alaves... it's not my place to comment on that, but Real Madrid are very prestigious opponents and they have a manager who's earned his position for a reason. It will be very difficult because they have a lot of resources, but we will try to maintain our style and take the initiative.

One of those that may end up moving on is Eliezer Mayenda, who has struggled for prominence since promotion to the Premier League. Mayenda was a standout performer in the Championship, but since the arrival of Brian Brobbey in the summer, he has struggled for regular minutes. He is currently third in the pecking order behind Wilson Isidor and the Netherlands international, which has led to him making only eight appearances in the Premier League three of those have been from the start.

Midnight was fast approaching when Eddie Howe faced a curve-ball question: if he could be offered a draw at the Stadium of Light on Sunday would he accept it? If the typically straight-bat answer no chance, we prepare to win every game was expected, Howe's subsequent reaction spoke volumes about Sunderland's recent metamorphosis. Newcastle's manager was standing on a concrete concourse at the BayArena, where his team were hugely frustrated to have been held 2-2 by Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League on Wednesday, but his focus had switched to a potentially bigger challenge on Wearside.

Grealish arrived at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in August, and alongside the likes of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Iliman Ndiaye, he has been a standout performer for David Moyes' side. He may have only registered two goals and four assists during his 16 appearances, but his overall performances have been very impressive.

I expect a very, very difficult game. Every time I see and analyse his team, I think they are extremely competitive. We are in a fine place - not an exceptional place, but a fine place. I expect us to go there with confidence and belief and a good chance of getting three points. I also expect it to be unbelievably difficult. It's nice to share experiences with good friends and colleagues like [Dyche].

FC Barcelona have their sights on three areas to strengthen in the summer of 2026 - a new centre-forward, a left-footed centre-back, and a left-winger. As per recent reports, one of the players who is on the Catalans' radar for the left flank happens to be RB Leipzig speedster Yan Diomande. The former Leganes wonderkid has caught the attention of Barça manager Hansi Flick and is a player that the club are monitoring.
